Pull the dimmer switch out and tap into it there. Get a mulitimeter to see what one has the adjustment in it. I think, not sure but seem to think it is the orange wire coming from the dimmer switch... Do the piggy back fuse deal..

Correction to my earlier post. On my 03 anyway. Orange/Black wire.

All 3 of my pillar guages are wired together, then to the dimmer, along with my wideband on the column pod...
