Dash light tap location?

Anyone know of a good place to tap into the 12V supply for the interior lights? I'm going to install an auxiliary boost gauge soon and don't want to burn up the bulb inside having it on all the time so I'd like to wire it up to activate only when I turn the rest of the dash lights on.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I tapped into the green wire for the cigarette lighter light, but I had already broken that bulb so that's why I used it. You can also tap into the light dimmer knob, which I believe is also a green wire.
 
Is it a regular bulb or an LED gauge? Regular bulb, I would tap the dimmer so that it dims too. If it's LED, you have a few more options.

It's a cheapo sunpro so I'm assuming its a regular bulb. If it was a 10,000 hour LED I'd probably just leave it on...
