This is how I solved my rheostat problem. Just connected the wires and left 
it in place. But I would not say that the gauge lights come on "bright."
I like cruising on summer nights with that retro glow. But if I really wanted 
to know what the gauges are saying forget it. I actually had all the gauges 
out and reinstalled them and don't think it is a poor ground. Do these bulbs 
get tired after a while?
