Sparex lighted gauges

[725Gunner]

I have a ford 801 that I am putting new gauges in. They claim to be illuminated but I don't see a place to connect wires on the back. There is this brass screw with plastic over it that wasn't on the old ones, I'm not sure if that is part of it.

should be a hole in the black plastic.. loosen the brass screw, skin back the light wire, insert into hole, tighten down brass screw... make sure gauge is grounded via the mounting case to the grounded dash metal. (may have to scrape off some paint where the mounting bracket touches the dash underside. And the dash light wire will run to the lighting switch.

See if that black thing with tbe brass screw slides out. That is where the light would go. Maybe that is an LED light.
