I think they are referring to constant for the gauge and switched for the light. Here is how I did my setup. For the gauges on the pillar, In the fusebox on the side of the dash there are 3 open lugs, one of them only has power when the ign is on and I use that with a inline fuse to power the gauges, ground to the stud just above the hood release (under the kick panel). Switched power I tapped into the headlight switch for the gauge lights on the pillar pod, for the gauges in my console I tapped into the light in the ashtray to power those lights.

I used a braided line and made mounts to secure the FP sending unit down low below the ECM. So it the sender ever springs a leak the gas would not be dripping anywhere near heat. I ran the wires thru the rubber grommet where the stock harness goes.
