DIY:

1) remove ground from battery

2) mount tubes.

3) wire tubes in line with each other.

4) ground the transformer for neons.

5) wire positive lead for transformer.

6) reattach your ground on battery.

7) clean your work space.

the real problem that i have... is the location and the mounting of the tubes... the rear, front and the two sides.... wireing is pretty easy to do.... if you know how to hook up the power, ground and a switch.... but i need to know how you guys mounted underneath your car....

are you kidding me? you need a DIY on how to install NEONS? please people, use some common sense. im not tryin to be an @ss or anything, but the hardest part of the install is running a power wire from the battery to the module. the easiest part is screwing in your tubes.

well.... i'm not that good with cars... and i don't know where or how to mount the tubes... and also.. i don't want to drill any holes on the bottom of my car.. and puncture something that is important or something.... and the wireing is pretty simple... i'm just worried about the mounting part... such questions as... where is a good place to mount the tubes.. so that it will have the best clearance from the ground? and also.. if i mount the tube in any area, am i going to puncture anything important when i am drilling holes for the mount... stuff like that... and for the wireing... its pretty simple... you have two wires, the ground and positive.... the positive goes to the switch and from the switch another wire goes to the battery... and then you just ground the thing... i'm just mainly worried about the mounting part...
