my gauge only got three wires including an earth wire.
Yes you're right...just gone out to the garage and checked.
Does'nt have the green sensor wire because you have the tube that attaches to the back instead.
Red (Power), Black (Earth) and Orange (Illumination).

...from cig lighter which is just fed by two wires and still no luck
This would have a power source and an earth.
OK.
Make sure that your Black wire from the gauge is earthed really well.
I used a point behind the center console unit, behind the heater controls to the right hand side - you'll see a metal plate welded to what looks like a reinforcing tube. It has two thread screws coming out of it. I soldered a ring crimp connector to the black wire and used this point with a stainless steel washer and 10mm nut.
Next find a power source (ACC) from either the clock or the cigarette lighter.
First temporarily connect it up to the Orange wire from the gauge.
Switch the ignition on and the gauge should light up.
If not, I suspect that the bulb/led is blown in the gauge.
and try and figure it out.
