looks good, basically the same thing i did in mine, except that i only put them under the front. .....I just like to hide the tube so all you can see is the glow from it. Just a personal preference of mine, I don't like seeing the actual neon tube.

Thats why mine are slightly showing and not completely hidden... I went as far back as possible before i ran out of plastic to screw the tiny screws into... I didn't drill just used a screwdriver and pressure...

i can post daylight photos tomorrow.

I'll take pictures of mine tommorow, mine sit pretty far up in, so you can't seen them at all. All you see on mine is the glow when they are on, other then that you'd never know they were there.

I'm guessing you hardwired it right? I was thinking about getting some small tubes w/ blue and doing that to my car.

ok....here's the pics that i took this morning. I couldn't get a real good picture of the mounting, but I got one that is good enough to give you the idea.....I forgot that I actually wire ties to secure them.

Like I said it was hard to get a good picture of the mounting, the Neon tube sort of blends in amongst everything else. I just drilled a small hole just big enough to put a wire tie through. That way if I ever take them out, it will still look clean, and you'd never know they were there.


Hidden switch


Neons on

I zip tied my neons and you can't see them. I plan on putting some in the back seat somewhere but not that many options.

ya thats what i should have done... i'm kind of pissed now that i screwed mine in... even tho the screw holes are tiny... oh well, i may change them around tomorrow.... I'm with Fast seeing them does get kind of annoying whereas the glow is pin. Oh well small fix.

Sempher, Ya i don't like the blinking option either, definate seizure material. I actually still have to Hardwire mine, but they have two options, one for total on and one for seizure blink, so i'll have to see if its going to be possible.... yay i love wiring.
