Which wire powers the instrument lights?

I'm installing some aftermarket gauges, and I'd like to draw the power for their back lights from the van's gauge cluster lighting so that their illumination turns on and off with the headlight switch. Does anyone know which wire this would be or have a wiring diagram for this part of the electrical system?

This is in a 1996 KZH-106W.

I've discovered that the dash clock conveniently has it's pinout labeled on the back, one of which is illumination. So I'm going to use that.

Perhaps I can trace that back to the wire that powers all gauge illumination. I'd like to install a dimmer at some point, so good info to have.
