Default STFA. How to install A Defi boost gauge?TIA

Been looking at the AWE site instructions and Bhvdr(a.geeks) write up on his Boost Gauge install. The Defi gauge has 4 wires, white for illum which connects to the blue/grey wire at the light switch, black for grounding. Up to this point, the install is similar to the AWE. For the other 2 wires, orange goes to the 12v wire for ignition on,red goes to the 12v battery wire. Can any body give advice on where the orange and red wires go to? TIA

yes it is. It is a new release but in 52mm instead of 60mm.

Default See if you can just run the Red to a ignition controlled 12v line

like the cigarette lighter or another convenience item that is only on when the car is on.
