anyone know what grade of wire i need to use to make up a loom for a set of vdo gauges? i mean what thickness wire.cos there are various sizes in the local halfrauds but i haven't got a clue which ones to buy! the clocks themselves are the usual arrangment,volts,oil pressure and oil temp. :dunno:

doesn't need to be particularly large for any of those, there's bugger all curent flowing in them. similar sort of size to standard stereo wiring will be fine. 0.75mm2 i think. sorry, my brain doesn't do swg
