As I understand it the gauges have no posts just wire pigtails coming out from them? Common solution is to butt connect them.
That is the situation, what I don't get is how do you butt connect multiple pigtails?

The wires are probably 16 - 18 ga.? You can strip the sheathing and twist them and two will fit in a blue butt conn. Use the adhesive walled heat shrink type. You can also get butts that step down in size. I get them from Lewis Marine Supply but I am sure they are available elsewhere.
