I am probably springing up a new problem for you here:

Regardless of the fact that the v-meter doesn't need a sender, it is 
important to mount its leads at the right spot(s). Mounting them just 
anywhere where the 12V battery supply goes could give you way false 
readings when you turn on different loads (lights, blinkers, wipers, 
etc.) There are quite a few web pages out there that describe 
installation of VDO gauges (all types). Do a search first for VW faq, to 
get the official faq. If it is not in there, do a search for VDO gauges 
and you will get several interesting sites.
