Just finished...

So last night I got done installing two neons in my footwells. They are both 9" minis, but I'm satisfied with how it turned out. Now I'm going to end up buying a few more to accent the rear footwells anyway since this is so easy to me now after knowing nothing about it before. I'll probably take pics of it too and post them. It really does feel good to install things by yourself instead of professionally.

So...what other little mods could I do until I get neons that could spruce up the interior that are pretty simple to do, and don't cost too much money?

Yeah it does feel good knowing you did the work, and the results feel good when all goes well. Post some pics, I'd like to see how this looks, I have neons under my seats and I was wondering how this looks

Heres my interior, I want to put a Neon in the trunk as well. Nyte do you directly hook up the neon or do you need a transistor? I assume you tapped into the wire that powers the white trunk light.

Nice looking, Keyees. The only thing is are your tubes always visible? Because I just kinda think it looks better when you only see the glow
