reded · 04-10-2006, 08:10 PM

hey just wondering were you guys have put neons/LED sticks on the interior of your car. I've got 1 in the glovebox and 1 in the boot lighting up my subs, i used to have them at my feat but theyu were too bright and reflected on the windscreen:( so i took them down.
looking at updating the lighting in my car so pics would be good thanks.

I'll explain what ive got,

1 x 20cm neon above headunit (blue)
4 x Footwell neons wired upto a switch (blue)
3 x LED lights in boot lid, so when boots open the surrounding ground around glows (blue)
1 x Tube 30cm's in boot below parcel shelf (blue)
1 x Strobe light in boot mounted behind sub to give pulse kind of effect (blue)

Looking at buying a red srobe for the boot and putting blue LED's behind my dash also.

Sure helps having a heavy duty battery!

lol yeah was pretty good lol.

XR_Lightning · 04-10-2006, 10:06 PM

the neon in the glove box looks pretty cool, just that people would never see it much which is a shame, just when you open your glove box, unless you cruise around with your glove box open

reded · 04-10-2006, 10:12 PM

well i could cruise with it open coz when its open the entire car lights up its that bright lol.

cheers troy

CaRtZ · 04-10-2006, 10:31 PM

i did think that way but i dunno if i want them on a switch or not.

TWiZTiD · 05-10-2006, 12:03 AM

on my light blue ea i put 2 neons under the bonnet just incause i need to work on it at night.

Now i just have 2 blue neons in the footwells and all globes replaced with blue LED's as well as the dash.

i wired all mine up throught the ciggy lighter wires(spliced them),and ran them on switches, apparently the fuse for the radio/lighter can handle it...?

You guys should go to vegas :P If you park for long enough, some rat-arsed tourists might mistaken your ride for a casino

Now thats a confident ford owner...............

DEVL-XR · 05-10-2006, 12:17 PM

not a bad idea all the same!

nothing worse than having to pull over at night because something goes wrong under the hood and you've got no light to see what your doing! i'd be willing to do this myself! lol!
did you hook them up straight to the battery? if so what wire? just the positive?!!

cheers

**El Venom** · 05-10-2006, 05:36 PM

i had a red neons under my bonnet attatched to the cosworth vents, now one is ir the rear console and the other is in the center air vents the ones under the clock. inside the vents are painted silver and dam they are bright. i am about to another 8 6' neons in and some red LEDs and put the leds in the other vents on the dash.
