The cigarette lighter is an ignition feed. If you use that for power, then the boost gauge will illuminate as soon as you turn the ignition on.

Best to use the rear fog light illumination wire (IIRC purple/grey on MY99/00). That way, the gauge will light-up only with the rest of your lights.

I have some pics and details from my own install on my website
