help with wiring

I am hooking up my reverse glow gauges right now, the directions say hook up the power wire to the dash light power or cigarette lighter power, but it does not say where the wires are. Could someone please help me with a picture or description as to where to hook up my power wire?

Ok, thanks for the help. I got it working except for one problem.... The speedometer gauge would not work, it made me mad, now Im going to have to take everything apart again when I get another one.

See if there is a spot on the gauge to cut so that the inner glow spot wont lite up (used to be able to with the ones for the civic) they look much better without that lit up
