wow. seriously?
+ is positive (usually red wire)
- is negative/ground (usually black wire)
tap the + wire to one plug for the switch, tap the other + wire to the cigarette lighter + wire, then ground the black wire to your chassis. mount the neons wherever...

put the switch on the ground that way you run a continuous live power line to the neons that won't come disconnected anywhere else and short out... if the ground comes off and shorts out... oh well the lights turn on big deal
put a fuse on the power line anyway, just because it's good to. .5 amps per tube should suffice
