Hey blake,

I got my dials in - thanks for sending em up!!

They are green as anything - however we wired them to the dimmer switch - heh i was slack an those wires were easier to get to - but they work fine - if you don't plug the dimmer back into the roller switch when you put all the facia back in.

If you do plug the little wiring harness back in i lose the dials lighting up - they will flash on when you first turn on the lights for about .2 of a second but if i don't plug it in - which is currently what i have (or havent done) then i lose all of the centre console lights - the aircon nobs and buckles etc.

therefore i will have to find another headlight wire - does anybody know what colour the park lights wire is at the back of the instrument cluster - the one blake holds in the photo of the tech article for installing the dials - all i wanna do is when i have the headlights on i have the dash lights on as well - like normal!! but blake - you said it is different from the tech article you wrote to my car - i have a TH and i know i can find it with a test light - but i am slack - any takers wanna help or do i have to get the test light out to check??

very green!!! i think i might need to make it a little less bright - looks funky when you open the door and you can see the instrument cluster, under feet neon glow and under car neon glow at the same angle!!! very alien green!!

manual

sounds hell cool
im trying for the blue theme!

getting there
i want everything brighter though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Currently my neons include:
1 x Green 12" under drivers side foot well
2 x Green LED windscreen washer jet lights
1 x Green Luminous Dials Set
1 x Green Under car neon kit!!

I want another interior one - and i also need to fix my under car ones - they are slowing dying - but have had them for over 6 months and it was worth it all the way!!! I have even taken the car on gravel and have had no issue with breakage - since i have installed them i have travelled over 10000km's with no breakage in the tubes.

Manual

how you reakon you'll go with it lowered?>???
where are your undercar ones??
u think theyll get smashed on bumps n shite?????????

Wikkid Manual, Glad you like em. Told you they would be green :D

Im experimenting with the Blue LEDs again and im having a ****er of a time... Im thiking about putting some blue flexiglow behind the cluster or a small neon.

As for the wire you mention, howcome your a/c control lights die? Very odd. I'll most probobly be pulling my cluster out again so i'll have a look what wire it is again.

However when you hold your wiring harness plug up i know if you stick the you wires in the far left sockets that work (I know that makes no sense). If your still stuck how bout running a wire from your parkers in you headlights. Just an idea. More work though.

if i hit the neons on bups with it lowered it means i have ripped the sideskirs out - cos the tubes sit higher under the car then what the sideskirts do so i shouldn't have to worry about that - and they aer a fair way off the ground anyways. you will see soon enough!!

manual

excellant!!! 8)

Hey Blake,

that is where i have them wired currently - in the left hand ones - the black and the yellow and black - they work fine unless the wiring harness is plugged into the dial tuner - then the dash doesnt display but the centre console does - because te dimmer affects the centre console as well - because i havent plugged it in when i have the headlights on the circuit isn't completed to the centre console - but when i do complete the circuit - i don't have the display light up - i will fiddle with it on the weekend - i will make it work!!!

manual

yo, how much did your undercar neons set ya back???
how did you mount em???

the kit was just over $200 and it comes with all you need to fit it - all the clamps and screws, switch and wiring - everything!!

the avatar is a bit screwed up - i don't know why they turned out so bright - they arent actually that bright - but the camera we took the pics with was a shitty old one!!

but if all goes to plan you should be able to see mine in the next couple of weeks.

if you want a hand installing - i am more then willing to help!! It will have a better effect if the car is lowered cos the light is closer to the ground so the colour will be stronger!!


Manual

how many neons?
is it 3 or 4????
200 aint that bad
i was thinking 500
if it were lowered it would be cooler anyway.....
ohhh money...........

I wanna get a set of blue under car neons for cruises etc. After my kit and rims ofcoarse!

Keep tying manual, you'll get it sorted, but i understand the probelm. I didn't take my power from the dimmer control, i took it from the wiring harness that actually hooked up to the cluster.

Hey whitey

the kit contained 4 tubes - front back and two sides. very funky!! i like the green theme cos lotsa ppl prefer the blue and i was goin for something different.

manual

I have a thing for blue lights, so cool and icy :D

Definatly gonna get some under car neons after my kit is fitted. Manual and White VRX, you guys wanna get together sometime and help us?

yeah man, only if you guys help me!!!
wanna see if we can get em cheaper?? i may have a friend that will get em, so maybe we can get a bit of a deal??

and my interior is blue

so i kinda need blue lights!!!

green lights would work, but i thought blue on blue would be a bit nicer

Mate - when i get to perth - if ever you need a hand give me a call - i will give you a hand no problem.

because we havent got much to do in the pilbara after work - we tend to just fiddle with our cars so it will be nothing different to hear for me.

by the way - i fly to perth on monday night for an interview on tuesday - so i am another step closer to perth and the position starts very soon - so there within 2 or 3 weeks!!! fingers crossed!!

If ever you wanna change your auto to a manual - give me a call - done it on another car - how hard can it be on a FWD???

Manual

i think the 5 speed auto
is the best invention ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
its fast and very responcive
i think it will get a bit faster as time goes on and they refine it!

and its a 5 speed
which is good where i live
long roads.... low revs

yeah the 5spd auto is good - but even with tiptronic it is still auto - it is no where near as responsive as foot clutch 3-2 clutch throw back in seat!!!!

200 bucks is cheap as it is!!! and they are easy to install - well time consuming but easy.

my mate up here with an ED falcon has blue - looks kinda sick - if you check out fastmagna gallery - there is a VR-X there with blue neons on his P's = they have no infor on the car though so we don't whose it is!! mine seems to be one of the first that can actually explain the install process - just a question - do you see many of them in perth?? many ppl with neons on??

oh well - guess i will find out soon!!

manual

havent seen any cars ever
with neons underneath!!!!!!!!!

5 speed auto
is still got faster gear change than what most people can do with a clutch,
unless there a real good driver

Blue neons on white cars are the best. They look sick.

my gear shifts can be completed in less then .2 of a second - quick enough?? and i know when it will change - that can be up or down at any pont in the rev range - then again it may take another .5 of a second to get the revs up if i am down shifting to overtake or something of the like -

hey white VRX would u like an avatar or something??

everyone has there car here so i thought i would go something different.

manual

i coulndt be bothered uploading my car
