Best Place to Find Power for Depth Gauge

[Spur of the Moment]

Hi all.....I installed a Hawkeye depth gauge in the dash and trying to find the best place to tap into the wiring for power. 1998 Challenger 1800. No battery switch I don't want it on all the time. Is there a place where power is on only when the engines are running? The only other course would be to install a switch.

Thanks

You can tap the power at the gauges. They shut off with the computer. BUT... on some of the boats... there is a free connector that is for optional gauges. Just look behind the dash.
