Reply to "omission of ampere gauge"

If you're set on removal of the gauge, then, YES, you will need to connect as did the amp gauge internally. The connection should be soldered as Jack suggested. If the removal decision is based on the continual failure of the gauge from over-load, then you could do what I did and remove those devices that pull large loads, all the time, and wire them directly to the battery side of the gauge, or other tap, with a fuse or circuit breaker inline for safety. My radiator and a/c fans pull directly from the battery side and not through the gauge. Of course keep in mind you're actually pulling more than your gauge now shows, but one normally looks to a gauge for changes and not simply a negative or a positive reading only.
