Here's what I did:

Run a positive wire to a fuse with keyed 12V (I used #13 on my '88; yours may or may not be the same). Connect that wire to the positive side of the voltmeter. Wire the ground (inverted T?) to a valid ground connection (you can bridge with the ground from another gauge). All that's left then is the wire for the illumination, which you can also bridge to the illumination wire to another gauge (on the positive side). The negative side of the illumination can ground in tandem with the main ground from the gauge.

Hope this helps. Others may have better details.
