Neons... Where are they on your Ride?

*** IF you dont like neons, please dont say they are rice, and give bad replies about them***

Im interested in getting neons for my car, and i dont know where i should put them, and how many i should get... I was thinking 2, and 1 under each of the front 2 seats, and tie em. I just dont want people movin the seats, and breakin the tube what are other possibilitys ?

I have 2 White ones under each side of the dash and two more under each seat. I have them also behind my amps. None of which are visable and they are all white - even people i tell that say its rice take it back after i show it to them. I work for a car audio company, I have dealer sponsorships from JL Audio, Eclipse, and MB Quart. The car is in the works now but in a month or so i'll have new pictures up. Incase your wondering I have the new eclipse screen (its not out to the publick yet) MB Quart QSD's in the front, two JL 300/2's for the highs and a 1000/1 for my three JL W6v2 10's. (its SQ, the w7's loose to much quality), plus all my audio control pieces. I will be showing with Mike Richards, he is on kickers team (i work with him, and am good friends with him) he has been the world champion for IASCA shows for three years now in his Acura Integra (Sound Q of course)

I dont know what half of that stuff is

Sounds really good though... Thats cool wit the sponsorships, wish i could get some %'s off items, or perhaps get some free stuff, but im 90% stock

I def wanna see the pics when you get everything done.

You like the white neons? Thought the would look a lil weird... kinda like a regular light?

hooking them up was easy for me, i've always been into electrial stuff and understand it pretty easy but for others who dont know a lot about it, it can be hard to understand. hooking all the stuff i have took about 2 days, most of which was taking stuff apart and putting it back. nothing i have is LED, all street glow, you can wire it to a battery but i just tapped into the cig. outlet wire, either way is fine. those are the switches in my console, i just took it off, drilled some holes and put the switches through, the UB kit switch i'm going to put in one of the blank switch panels next to the cig. lighter. i forget who asked but to put them in th middle vents is VERY easy, carefully pry out the center piece (you can use a cloth and screwdriver but just used my fingers), dont take it out all the way or you'll unplug some stuff, just take it out just enough for you to reach in the vents, put the neons in and drop the wire down till it comes out around the cig. lighter. and thats it.

Put it under the hook. So you can see the engine without holding a touch light

So for 2003 models we won't even need to take off our center console? Just pry off the center unit with a screwdriver? No wonder my friend's HU got stolen so easily.

yeah... does that mean the tubes are bouncin around in there? And there's just a gaping hole that drops down to the cig lighter area? How and why would the Air conditioned air be let thru the vents if there's a hole in the bottom of the air passage leading to them? Oh yeah... and what about the side vents? How did you manage that?
