Okay couple things here.

Your gauges are flickering, do you have some massive car stereo in the trunk, that is causing this, or do they just flciker.

If they are just flickering, on then off and on and off, most likely it is a bad ground someplace.

If they are dimming, then going back to full bright, if can be caused by a loose connection someplace.

A high output alternator takes place of the stock one, same place, just bolts up.
