Does sound like a blown fuse, check in your little panel under your dash, then check the fuses in the engine bay, you could have blown one of those some how....
Edit: Either that or you have created a short, which should have blown a fuse.
Edit2: Either that or you connected the negative to the positive wire on the neons, unknown result.

As soon as we see how u have connected it up and what they are connected to im sure we can help.
EDIT: it looks like u have connected them to ur boot light... is this correct? In that case i think think the boot light is linked with interior light fuse..... check it...

Unplug the neons and see if the CD player works, also, you didn't run the battery flat did you?

You may have blown the neons circuits when the fuse went. Easiest way to test if they are stuffed is to d/c from where they are now and hook the power wire to the red terminal on your battery and the ground wire to the black terminal. If it doesn't light up, say bye bye to neon.

yeah then take it back from wehre you got it and try to claim it was at fault when you bought it.
