Default installing guages

I'm trying to intall an a/f guage and boost guage in my 91 civic. I bought both used and dont have instructions with them.

Could anybody be soo kind and tell me what the two wires run two from both guages? I'm assuming ground and power or accesory, but i'm not sure?

I tried searching but couldnt find what i was looking for. Thanks

what type of gauge is it? My autometers have a letter by each pin for what it goes to.

yea, then I would figure that yellow goes to the illumination. You can find a male connector on your fuse box to use if you wish, for both applications.
