illumination wire

[RFR2212]

What wire is best for illumination of gauges? I tried searching but struck out. In my previous dodge, I just tapped into the wire used for the stereo and it worked just fine. I just got my truck 2 weeks ago and need to get gauges in before 2600 miles of driving next week.

Thanks all, and yes, I jumped ship from a CTD. Loved the motor but everything else around it was less than stellar.

I just tapped the running lights wire right where it comes out of the headlight switch!

Edit: I found the diesel manor instructions and that did the ticket

Light blue/red is the instrument illumination wire.
