Default Boost Gauge Question

Ok this is for all of you boosters out there. I'm going to install my boost gauge later today and I was wondering what you guys are using for your 12V power supply. I have some ideas but was just curious what everyone else was using. Thanks!

well right off the dimmer switch is a good idea, because you want it on when your lights are on.

Mine is spliced into the headlight wire from the fuse block. I did it like this so that the light is only on when the headlights are on.
