Thomas,
If there is a voltage regulator/stabilizer for the
insturments, I would seriously consider that as it
could and likely would impact many if not all of the
gauges. If there isn't a voltage regulator supplying
a reduced, but stable voltage to the gauges (like
10V), then disregard this.
Regards,
Ben Pender
