Custom wiring???

So the gauges in my recently purchased truck have a short:doh:. I took one look under the dash and decided I needed to rewire them so I know what I have incase I ever have to trouble shoot something on the side of the road.

How are you guys wiring your accesories? I have very little car wiring expeirence and I would like to learn how to do it right the first time.

Here is a picture of where mine is wired. Went to the auto parts store and picked up the fuse spliters. I will try to post it up in the morning if some one doesnt do it before me.
