Under Car Neon kit? - Honda Prelude Forum

Jape · 01-09-2002, 12:30 PM

I know most of you guys thinks its *** or whatever, but I was just wondering if it was possible... Does our cars have the clearance for the 4 neon tubes that go under the car? Just wondering...

yeah I think it's ***...but to answer you question we don't have the clearance but you could still mount them they would just stick out.

be carefull on speed bumps...or if you had a body kit you could hide them.

or if fitment is an issue you could get a series of Hyper LED's and mount them under car and in wheel well.

much cheaper and last longer

You have tonnes of room , but if you dont have a body kit you will be able to see the lights from the side protruding

FAST AND THE FURIOUS FAST AND THE FURIOUS...NOS NOS!!!! haha.

I think once I get my body kit on I'm gonna get some neons. I'm sorry but I think they look so sweet and I've only seen like 2 cars in my area in the past couple years that have had them.

arent Neons illegal?

I don't know if they're illegal but usually you also have a switch to turn them off

i dont know if it depends on the state although they are illegal to use on the roads on n.c. however if you are in a parking lot or other places not moving on a highway they can't say anything....the same as w/ strobe lights.....you just can't have them switched on, on the road and the same w/ n2o you cant have the bottle valve turned on

NEONS?!?! Are you guys f-ing kidding me?!? Looks good?!? Prelude ain't what it used to be......

I had neons on a previous car, and it didn't last long. A month maybe. Those things are sensitive to anything. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't last too well in the cold either.

neons.... they are alright i guess but that would be my last thing on my list for mods =)

Curvebal33 · 01-10-2002, 02:24 PM

I think they look pretty sweet. Not to mention, nobody around here has them. I'm not saying they're on the top of my list of mods, but they are on my list. I want a new engine next....VTEC....mmmmmm need more power.

the neon tubes are very short lasting, and i have to agree with previous people that u can hide them only if u have a body kit. I c allot of rice boys at night with them pulling up to night clubs, mostly civics, never seen a prelude.
I think its a waste of money.

Even if nobody has them in your area when people are gonna see you with them on your car they're gonna say you took that from The Fast And The Furious

Glitch · 01-12-2002, 09:25 AM

come on guys...how rice can this get? why not get a pair of neon windshield fluid squirter to go with that? but what ever floats your boat...to me they are a waste of money, you wouldn't believe how many people will make fun of your car when you pull up...

Curvebal33 · 01-12-2002, 10:22 AM

Personally, I think they look nice on a hooked up car. I mean, I don't like graphics (ESPECIALLY those damn stock pinstripes...yuck) on cars or any type of stickers....but still, some cars look nice with them. Just as neons look ghetto on some cars and nice on others. You guys can't honestly tell me those cars in F.A.T.F weren't phat. But again, it's all an opinon thing. When I first saw my rims (a couple years before I got them), I thought they were ugly because I liked tuner style rims. But then I fell in love with them. Styles change and opinions change.

neon lights are fine... as long as you have the hydrolics and 12" daytons to go with it.

i think neons are DOPE on cop cars [new jersey drive baby]
