    Why would you want to do a thing like that? You like rice?

    Yes. Easy.

    Recipe for simple rice:
    Mount the neon how ever you will, put in a switch somewhere. Connect one side of the switch to an accessories line, connect the other side to the + on the neon. Connect the - on the neon directly to a clean part of the chassis. Turn on accessories and flick the switch.

    Another variation of that recipe would be serving it up to the interior light switch. So it's only on the menu when the doors are open.

    Being a chef, I can say that a rice didh like this one is best served in a Hyundi, Pulsar or Laser.

    Before you go adding the neon spice to your rice, check the legalities.

    Good Luck !!!

    ok i dont like rice
    but i just like to add a bit of colour to the interior at night
    and also so i can see if there is something i want that is on the floor...
    i have installed 2 blue leds in my vr
    the way i have connected them is thought the interior lights
    so when i turn the headlights on so do they just like the dash

    simple to do the wiring
    just run 2 wires from each LED
    straight to the ciggi lighter attached to that is a small globe simple attach the wires
    to the existing wires IE + to + and - to -
    and hide wires of course dont want any shitty wires hangin down
    and there you have it...

    it's simple and easy

    remember i do not like rice
    and putting neons and LED does not give you more KW's or HP

    Dont bother insuring if your not gonna tell the truth. Insurance assesor is paid to find reasons not to pay you. Lowered suspension will definately be checked.

    lol some people over-react, i own a commodore cause its convenient, dont get me wrong, i love my vn and i love working on it but it just dont compare to a supra, as i have wanted one for years (not cause it was on the fast and furious, although there fav movies of mine) i like riced but have realized muscle is good aswell, so mixing the 2 a little to me is a good idea, i plan one having 2 neons under the car, 2 in front (footspace), 1 in boot and 1 under the hood. for show, they will all be swich controlled, its not wrong to mix, its just opinion, and if u hate ricers, take ur steering wheel off, seat covers, stereo, cause all car absessors are the same underneath.
