help me wire my autometer guages.

[staticc]

ok my car came with two autometer sport comp guages, a oil pressure, and temp.
the back of the temp guage has a white and black wire.. then the wire thats ran for the temp. the oil pressure just has a white wire. and the oil temp hookup.. both of the guages are hooked up. i just need to wire up the lights and whatever the black wire on the one is?

because they were installed really ****ty when i bought the car. all 3 of the wires were just grounded. so no guage lights. and since i dont have instructions i figured id just ask here. so whats the white and black wire on the temp guage? one for the light one for a ground?

the previous owner had them mounted in the 2 pod ac vent.. with duct tape , but at least the guages fuctioned, except the lights.

im gonna do my gauges soon.and what i have read is thet you can wire up the lights to work off the lights in the gauge panel you also get the dimmer option if you do it that way!

i attached a pic of my gauges one is electric the other mech.the only wires on them now are for the lights.
