I currently have two 10" neons hardwired to the cig lighter via a switch. Is there enough current there to hook up two more 8"ers as well? Or should I run a line directly from the bat? Thanks

You should run a 10 guage wire from the batt if yu plan on running any more...that way too you can use a barrier strip and individually switch each neon.

Got it... but would it be bad to hook the aditional two 8s up the the one switch that the two tens are on? its a 25amp "automotive switch"

Depends..read on the boxes/instructions the neons come in and see what their amperage draw is.. if all 4 exceed 25 amps.. a better switch is needed. Or get another of the same switch and hook the 10's to one and the 8's to the other..

i ended up running a 12g wire from the bat. with a 30amp inline fuse. I have both 8s and both 10s running off the same 25amp switch. Looks pretty sweet. I got the cheap neons (10 a piece avg.) so I needed one under the seat (the ten) and one up under the dash (the 8) on each side to get a nice, blue coloring....i didnt want feet to be getting in the way of my glow!

I'm now trying to think of some other interesting places to put some tubes...maybe in the door panels so it shines through the speaker grills? how about the rear deck so it shines through the speaker grills? So many choices!

Thanks for the help guys.

mini-tubes in the vents look allright..

Eh, I'm not big on that. I dont want to SEE the source of the light, just the light itself...ya know? Anyway I think I'm gonna call it quits with the neons for awhile, save up some money and update my sub to something a little meatier after graduation (one week left, YES!)


Thanks for all the advice!
