Okay, I know it might be kind of a weird request, and I know that I should just replace the fake gauges with real ones but for the time being I just want to hook up the set that I just bought...so I'm looking for the factory wire ends that plug into the back of the oil and volt gauges in the center pod to power them and provide the proper signal.

You'll have to take apart the pod to get to the connections.... just replace them.

Check the Motorcraft Wiring Pigtails Catalog and/or its companion, the Motorcraft Wiring Pigtails Illustration Guide.

Thanks guys. I think I found what I need in the Motorcraft Wiring Pigtails Illustration Guide (http://www.fordtechservice.dealerconn ection.com/Renderers/ie/wiring/svg/images/connectorcatalog.pdf).

Okay, I lied. I don't see a pigtail in the guide that looks like it'll work so I'm still looking for both the 'fake' oil and the volt pigtails for my gauge pod.

I don't want to cut the plugs and splice directly into them and for now don't have the money to get a real oil gauge.

Thanks

Use wire taps to connect the new gauges.

Good idea except that's going to be an awfully tight spot to use 3-4 wire taps.

Somebody's got to have a PN for me!

You'll need to buy the wiring harness for the dash.
