I have broken th inside bulb 2 times which was replaced under warranty, but then I broke the entire tube the last time and still havn't gotten it fixed yet. Next time it gos on I am putting it on my crash bar. I have a kit tho so it will be able to be seen w/ a stock bumper I don't know how that will look!

heh its kool, with the glow u need to drive very very very careful, espeically with the bumps. considering u dont have a kit so i'd say my car is lower than urs, i have neuspeed sport 1.75/1.5 with the kit so its less than 3 finger gap from the floor, i love my glow kit so far no scratch or nothing yet, but u need to go extremely slow on bumps and stuff....when u go over bumps, dont go straight pass it, try sling left then bak right....so instead of going straight pass the bump, go around it...knwo wat im sayin

there is an easy solution for this.
glow stick (thats what i like to call them) are a thing of the past now. The new thing is LED lights.
These tiny little LED bulbs come in any color and produce about 10 times the light that comes from a glow stick. Let me tell you, they are small...i was walkin around under my buddies car when he was putting them on (the car was on a rack), and i couldnt find them until he pointed them out.
Pros of having LED's:
Tiny Tiny Tiny
Never Burn out
you can position them so that you will never hit them, like for instance going over a speed bump.
Just thought that i would let you know

i think these LEDs that im talkin about are specifically made for under the car. I could be wrong though.
All i know is that my buddy spent like $70 on a bunch of them, and it honestly is the most light ive seen commin out from under a car.

Lite glow has a new under glow kit made just like the street glow traditional kit except, its not a tube of light, its a row of LED's in the tube. If that makes any sense at all. Oh well I tryed
