How to wire neon light under car? - Honda Prelude Forum

elppa · 02-03-2002, 04:51 PM

Before I go out and purchase the kit, I need to know how hard it is to intall those lights under the car. The only thing that bothers me the most is how do you run the wire from under the car into the dash controlled by a switch. But I dont want to tap it into any wires. I want to be able to turn it on and off as I want. If anyone have done this or have any suggestions please leave comment.
By the way, I have a 5gen.

Thanks, elppa...

No offense, but if it's not immediately obvious how to do this, I'd have someone else install the kit. You'd want to get a relay and then tap off the battery, not sure if you can/want to directly power the lights through the switch. It should be pretty easy. Not something I'd do in the cold though (but I'm in canada).

I have an underbody neon kit but i didn't install it

I put my on/off switch were the ashtray is in the middle and it looks incredible.

I had mine professionally done. The switch is under my dash like under the steering wheel. I like it it's very inconspiciuous.

nuro · 02-03-2002, 05:24 PM

oh and this just crossed my mind. can u get it installed and then later add a body kit?

Vooboo's and mine are both red

nuro · 02-03-2002, 05:33 PM

i can't decide between red (the color scheme i'm gonna be doing mods to the car with - and when i cant find red, a metallic color will do) or green (a la honda truck theif car in the fast and the furious)

edit- i have a black lude

Get red w/out a doubt but be aware that u might get in more trouble b/c "u r using emergency colors" red/blue are emergency colors

U will have no problems w/ adding the kit later on. Personally i think u need the body kit to hide the neons b/c it doesn't look good when u c teh bars

I would only get streetglow and i got mine for $125 near my house but u won't find it at that price. Gold series too which is more durable then the blue series.

For EBP i think possibly blue. Check www.streetglow.com for color selections and try www.groupbuycenter.com b/c they sell for about $175 shipped.
