Dash lighting problem

My car previously had the speedhut dials in and now that they have been removed i have one wire not connected and no dash lighting. Alos, having looked at the loom there is no obvious place for the wire to go. Is it the ground? Please help.

[Mk2] [NA] Fitting wheels with a 112 pcd.

Is there any way to do this on the MR2 without drilling the alloys? Wobble bolts and pcd adapters don't work as the thread for the wheel nuts is on the hub and not the bolt. Any ideas??? I have found an awesome set of wheels for my project but the pcd is wrong.
