Ok I ve got a TH Sports with the Red glow dash.... (the center temp surround has the standard blue type globes...
I dont have a coloured headunit as yet... I have 7 colour LED washer nozzles... and blue EL wire around the mirrors... I have red EL wire on the front of the car...

a cold cathode is good

very similar to a neon

accept :

puts out like 5 times more light, doesnt heat up like a neon
is much much smaller, and requires less power.
but then again, it is a lot more expensive then a neon

there's actually a few places that make that same case , just like mine there are different company's that make case's of the same design if i remember right that case is about $200

its good different company's make similar case's because i like mine but the good brand that makes it charge's $700+ while i got one that looks exactly the same for $300

Ok the ones I sell are....
6", $30+P/H
12", $27+P/H
6" with sonic activaction sensor, $43+P/H
12" with sonic activaction sensor, $32+P/H

Colours are Red, Blue, Green, or Red/Blue , Green/Blue, or TriColour.

For the 2 or the 3 colour Cathods it cost an addition $3

If you buy more than two at a time I can give better pricing.

Manual .. I know... 6" are in less demand I guess... Larger quantity sold of the 12" so I guess price is better.
Ill put some pics up in the next two days of what it would look like in a car to give people an idea.

That first case is a Cheiftec AX-01 (aluminium like) with a 12" sound sensitive blue CCFL and a 12" jaycar green ccfl up top. When i got that case it was retailing for $180 now its $207 or sumthing. I got it for making a website for webber4 technologies (http://www.webber4.com.au) but i sold it.

Second case is Lian Li PC60-USB and it cost me $290 but i think they are retailing $275 now. Its got 2 red 12" sound sensitive (they are orange/red), 1 12" jaycar ccfl (its pink/red) and 1 6" jaycar ccfl (its pink/red too!) im over case modding now tho otherwise my case would have shit flying out of it all over the place :D the CCFL's will be goin in my car however when i get my car NOT LONG NOW!
