Get an HID kit. If you want better lighting for your projectors, don't throw in cheap bulbs. HID is the way to go!

no, the brake lights would make the neon come on, not the turn signel like u want,and would also go off when your not on the brakes. what you could do is wire them to the turn signals itd be easier 2 do it 2 the fron ones, then splice the wires and run a relay to a switch in your dash all powered off your battery.

sooo when you want them to blink flip the switch off and turn the turn signal on then when you want them on just flip your switch.......i could tell you how 2 make half of your bar blink, but its wayyyyy 2 complicated. hope this helps you

right now there to an on/off switch. i want them to blink when the turn signals are one (when the switch is on) and stay solid when the blinkers arnt on (when the switch is on)

cant do it as far as i know, because you would have 2 run it 2 the turn signals first (or else they would be solid all the time) but if you did that then ran it 2 the switch it wouldnt complete the circuit so they would never be solid

you can wire them up to the turn signal wires (best to use a relay) but either way they would flash with the turn signal and im not 100% sure but im pretty sure its the parking light as well (on all times with your headlights)

you need to wire the neon up to a 5 pin(double throw) relay. You have an ignition switched(hot when car is on or whenever you want) power wire going into relay, and the the relay control which of two circuits the power can go to, you put the neons on the circuit fed by the relay when it IS NOT energised. and you have nothing hooked up to the energised leg of the relay. You would have to use the FRONT turn signal power feed wire as the control for the relay. This will have them on all the time, and have them blink when the turn signals blink, the only "BUT" is that the neon will blink OFF when the turn signal blinks ON, they will be out of phase, I dont think its a big deal and you may not care, but I dont know of anyway to get them to blink on and off at the same time as the turn signals without using an IC. but the 5 pin relay will work like a champ to accomplish what you want.

I really like this idea, and I'd be pretty sure that you won't see this on too many other cars thats for sure.

As for wiring lights up so they come on with your (or someone else wanted to do this) dome lights that's really easy, just get a fuse tap and put it where the fuse is for "int light" then run a common ground. Dome lights on, under glows on. I did it with lights under my doors, only my are only on when my doors are open so i can see the ground when I'm getting in and out of my car.
