by the looks of it

the white is the ignition
the red is the battery/ memory
the black is ground

and the light just run the power to the dimmer switch wire and ground the black side to a ground

no fellas, i dont think ignition wire will make sense here.
the analog clock needs to run from a constant 12V, the ignition wire on our clocks makes sense becuase thats what triggers the display to come on.

I would use the +12V, ground, and dimmer wires, or you can put the ignition wire on so your clock light up everytime you turn on the car :thumb:
