Default I think I figure out all my problems (regarding the TT). My boost gauge was hooked up like this

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/89878/boostgauge.jpg"></center><p>and I would like to know if this is okay that if it is grounded to the wire in the headlight switch. The blue things are where the two boost guage wires connect. I dont think this is right. Is the brown wire in he picture the right ground? IS that brown ground wire in this picture the same as ground as as the boost guage wire in the following picture in the next post. Does anyone have the proper wiring points for a boost guage in the drivers side vent. By the way, I was not the one that put it in and will never go back to this person for anything. Thanks guys.

Mechanical boost guage? All the wire is for is the light, does it function OK otherwise?
