Hey all

I tried searching but no luck finding what I'm after

Im putting aftermarket gauges in my vz ute, it's a alloytec

Some of the gauges need constant power, so I was thinking of using a spare fuse spot under the steering wheel since they have power to them, so I was wondering what is the best size fuse I should use?

There will be 3 gauges: oil pressure, volts and vacuum,

Cheers guys that's all I need

I would guess 3A would be more than enough

Thanks for the input guys, but it turns out I read the wrong wiring diagram with the gauges, it was for a multicolour led gauge and constant power was to keep led colour memory

Sorry about that but thanks again, for the rest of the power I'll just tap into the boot socket outlet fuse, it's in a ute so it's not used anyway and has power when turned on haha
