put a switch in then get the power from a wire that only has power when the ignition is on(the ciggy power etc) or you could get your earth from the door sensor wire so that they come on with the door opening if thats what you want

that will work but you will only be able to use the lighter when the neons are on. Just splice into the power wire to the lighter and the put your switch to your neons
