Double sided tape or even super glue.

Double sided tape or even super glue.yeha but what about wires

At least mount it under the seats or under the dash.

Visible neons suck, and just make heaps of glare = hard to drive at night.

Nice glow effect and no visible neon ftw

Cops will bust your *** with neons there as well

what he said..

if you are still insistant on placing them there at least wire them up behind the dash properly.. chop off the cig socket and hard wire it from behind.

its getting done this sunday with tj sports help, thats why i'm asking for your help, i wanna all wires at the back of the console like my head unit all i want tat the front is

romote
neons
powerthem pics is not the final product, and back to what tim said about the cops u ever though pull it out for cit/lighter, :nuts: , by the way these neons are for the head unit, they flash to your music,if i wanted to get neon for unerneath seats and all i would be getting bigger ones

so are you gonna cut the ciggy power off???............
with those blue neons, your interior is gonna look like a fish tank..... ppl coming the opposite directions are going to be able to see ya.....

easiest way is UNDER THE DASH out of sight, then you can just zip tie em anywhere and splice all the wiring into the ciggy lighter from the back, and you wont look like your in the nightrider with a blue face lit up while your driving.

Don't use your ciggy lighter plug for them, wire them up properly with a cheap $2 switch from jaycar/tandy somewhere (not screwed into your dash though) somewhere unobtrusive under your dash, within easy reach in case of (fashion) police

Or wire it up using the interior light so they come on with the doors.

if you must do it

just drill a tiny hole at the back of the bottom DIN near the top... run the wire taught and perhaps even put black tape over the top (sticking the wire to the top of the pocket) to make it even less visible. Use double sided tape or glue to attach it to that middle area of plastic between the two pockets.

Wiring, just tap into the cig lighter power. Go grab a $2 switch from DSE and wire that in, so if you are concerned with not being able to see, or police, you can just flip it off. This wont stop your cig lighter from working either.

but thats.. if you really want them there... your entire cabin is goin gto be blue, and your'e going to look like an idiot whenpeople can see you alll blue'd up at night when you pull up behind them hehe.

but, i spose this is why 99% of people by rice :D

riceled is a different story for us 1%er's. :P (looks at jon)

edit* OMFG tim.. even stole my $2 switch comment... damn slow fat fingers of mine :'(

Yeh mine does and you can make it flash, change colours, i've got it set to go through the full colour spectrum gradually, its cool :cool: .

i've find out where i'll puting my neon finally what you guys said finallly made sense to me now, puting neon on my head unit will drive me instane i was driving with last night it was like a fish pound and its hard to drive as well everywher u look blue , so i will be puting the neon near the brakes/access on the floor, hooking it up to accc , so they i would't havve drill into holes into my console, i'll be doing iut on this monday, i'll post post pics on monday

wow what a suprise it looked bad and like a fish bowl everyone said that it was so obvious, i wouldnt exactly call putting neons in a mod worth posting heaps of photos of especially when theyre all exactly the same, im pretty sure everyone gets the idea of what they look like.

Settle down... It's just the intarweb

Good to see you got it sorted Erik.

remember, mr glove box is always a out of the way place to put the odd stray switch much like ur bootlid release one, if ur that keen on switches, perhaps center console arm box thingy, (peronally, mines full of scrathed cd's, chewing gum, and those little packets of salt that ya get from maccas) or sneakey upside sunvisor, ive got a uhf under my steering wheel, and unless ur perving at my crotch, u dont really notice things hiding down under :-)

i had a mate whos radio scanner lived behind his center console air vents, and had a switch else where.. never saw it untill it comes on.. sneaky.

well placed neons can be used for good low lighting effects and highlights, just dont go overboard with em :-)

The plastic holder underneath the head unit should have a small gap on top.. its only plastic to get a screw driver or something and lever the gap big enough to push wires in.. Be gentle. dont break the plastic..:)

hey erik for the drivers side i had my neon under that plastic cover thing that goes under the steering wheel and i had mine sitting on its edge and that gave it a nice glow so maybe you could try that? heres a pic of how mine was at night

for abit of fun...i had 2x 24inch green neons in my boot attached to my boot light.

now ive got them placed on my parcel shelf up the back and the best part is...u cant get fined for them since you dont drive with your doors open or boot up.

something i want to do is fit pure white dome lights along the roof...ive seen it done and it looks awesome... any ideas how i could go about doing it?...sorry to hijack thread

fair enough

Don't you think the steering wheel one is abit too high? Visible kinda sux :doubt:

:shock: opps couldnt see it from the drivers seat, forgot to check the back lol

yeah, the passanger one looks sweet...the driver one is kinda painfully bright...

Passenger one looks awesome Erik, drivers one i agree is too high, if you can see the neon it sucks, your setup looks identical to the one i had in my TR.

I'll be doing something similar with red neons in the future, probably wont go that bright though.
