I suppose the best place to connect it would be the load wire from off/on switch or one of the feed wires going to one of the operation gauges.Aw, probably access to is the determining factor.

You could tap into the #27 circuit at that fuse behind the dash. That circuit is the ignition circuit and is only hot when the switch is on. Also that puts you right at the dash where I assume you want to mount the gauge.
