Wiring Gauges With inDASH

Here is the next video from our job of wiring our truck with ISIS. 

We took the original dash cluster out of the truck.  It was cool in an old-school way, but we wanted something a little more modern.  We picked up a new dash insert from Speedway Motors then went to Auto Meter to look for a set of gauges.  After some debate, we picked their Old Tyme White II Series
We really liked the look and the feed of these plus we went with the fully electrical gauges, which made wiring them very simple.  There are no mechanical cables, just small 22-AWG wires going to the senders and the sensors. 

To wire the gauges, we used our inDASH Dashboard Harness.  This kit gets you everything that you would need to wire your gauges, switches, power and illumination to your dash.  The best part about inDASH is that it gets you two sets of connectors that you can use to make your entire dash harness pluggable.  You can take the dash out of your car, wire it on the bench and plug it into the harness in the car.  Very simple.  The other big advantage of ISIS and inDASH is that all of the switches pull very little current, less than 1 milliamp.  This means that the wires going to your switches can be very small, 22-AWG.  The bulk of harness behind the dash is much smaller as compared to a traditional wiring harness.
