I am wondering what is the best way to attach neon tubes under the front dash? I looked and there isn't anything you can really screw them into. Also what is the best way to permanently wire them to you vehicle without using the cigarette lighter? Thanks everyone.

 

yoyoyo....jus buy LED's from radioshack, project boxes, rocker switch, wires, and twin AA battery pack(to power the led's) its cheaper and looks better than those neons. my opinon

 

i agree wit Zoo Racer. I saw his Car with the LED,those lil things are freaken bright as hell. you could make like 5 LEDs for the price of one Neon light. IMO those things look ugly in the day time, but at night they are brighter and look better than any freakin neon.

 

Not sure what an LED draws for power but 15" neon rods only draw about .3 amps. I have green 10" rods under my dash and 15" under the seats. They are bright but not enough to make you aggrivated or attract unwanted attention. Send me an IM at Morphling2001 on AIM and I will be happy to send you pics of what mine came out like and how i attached them. I will also help you to build custom switch boxes etc....Just ask.

LED's look nice...but unfortunately I already have the neons.

 

Can anyone say ricer. Neons under the car are ok. But not in it what are you thinking only a true amatuer would do something like that. i dont know what you guys are drinking

 

Hey SIR LANCERLOT READ MY SIG!!!!!

 

lol, im sure you have no clue what a LED is, let alone what resistor to even use or what "mCD" is, listen to NSX, you'll live longer, heh heh

but hey everyone has there own opinion

I must say...That is one hell of a job...You must tell me, how did you get all the lights red? With the LED's? And how did you do it? It looks very nice...I would do it if you could give me helpful instruction..Oh yeah don't forget to mention $$$'s...Cause thats one thing I'm really concerned about.

 

hehe like that? im dont with all 6 vents now
check it out

oh ya, since im a electronics student i had all my own equipment, but other then that, it cost me less than $20 total to install them

LED light from radio shack BLUE ones (more money god only knows why) cost like 1.20 each not to much and thay are bright as hell any one got something made up so you can wire them to the car maybe some kind of transformer or something laying around the house i could find?

 

hey, how did you wire you leds? I've been wanting to put some in my vents for the longest, but I don't know how to wire them... or get in there to mount em, how'd you do it??
