Hi all,

I have some neons which I have already sorted a switch, fuse and wire and tested etc. My first question would be how do I mount the neons on the underneath the doors, e.g. drill into the floor or what? The front one is easy cuz I can drill through the plastic on the front bumper, but the sides are metal, soo yeh.

My second question would be would I be able to put the wire through the back of the engine bay into the car through like a wire loom? or again would I haveto break out the drill?

cheers

Neons hehe how very nineties, I fear this thread will not go well. I suggest you mount them using "no more nails" wink

I know, im doing it because my street credit is through the roof, because I am that cool. No just for the banter, and becuase they r free. But what would you say anyway?

Get to Halfords and order some fibreglass side skirts, put the neons on the inside of these. Drive over a speed bump, crack them. Game over.

I saw an astramax van with DRLs spaced along the sides like you'd find on a coach.
Like a 21st century neon.
Perhaps those would be better?
