Wiring pyro

After reading that the pyro hot lead should be wired into a keyed hot while cranking circuit I was wondering if anyone could save me some work and tell me where they tapped in at?

Thank You,

Ben

Pyro Wiring

When I installed my gauges, I ran the red wire to behind the fuse panel and spliced it into the wire that powers the turn signal can. If I remember right it is a brown wire.
Pull the flasher can and use a test light or volt meter to see which one has 12v with the key on.It does not have to have 12v to the gauge while cranking, only running.
I hooked the gauge lights up to the headlight switch so they dim with the dash lights.
