Hey guys, I want to hook two of my neons up so that when the interior light is on they are on also..any ideas on what to hook it up to and where?

They were previously hooked up to a switch near the ash tray, so somewhere not far from there would be great.



Regards, Rhys

They will come on when a door is opened... it will be a on off thing, no delay. Youll have a to jack the leads if you want the same circut... no idea where they are though!

... fTake off your interior light cover, note colours of wires, open fuse bay, find fuse that controls the interior light, look around for similar colour wiring, multimeter it... splice..... thats what i would do anyway...

OK, thats good, but what he want to know is which wires to jack so he can utilise the delay on the interior light circut.... i will look in daylight. Fixing my speedo was enough of a pain tonight.
