How To Wire This?

Well i plan on installing some of my underglow today since its kinda nice out and was wondering after everything is all screwed in and such how do i go about wireing this thing to the battery... If someone could explain the process would be awesome i kinda have a fear with electricty after seeing my grandfather get shocked from installing a light socket thing in the wall. Thanks & please dont say i shouldnt do it... or underglow is gay... its my car not yours if you dont want to help lol dont. Cant learn anything if i dont try thanks for anyone that helps!

You'll probably want to wire it into the fuse box and have a toggle switch? I would look for an empty spot in the fuse box in the engine compartment or one in the fuse panel on the right side of the center consle(sp?). How many amps does this kit draw?

"The 12 volt electronic neon tubes drawr only 6 amps. an 8amp in-line fuse is provided"

the power outlets total (5A)

how would i go about wireing this up to the fuse box then if that is safer/easier

ok fastest way is going through the trunk straight to the battery. what i did was drilled a whole out there is a little tab underneath the spare tire that goes underneath to the car. then you run all of the wires into the trunk to the battery. run two wires up to the spot where you want the switch. connect both to the switch. one will run to the neons or the power source of the neons and the other one will go to the battery.
