lighting and wireing it

i bought these neon tubes or strobe lights and i dont like the idea of the cords from the plugs everywhere is there any way that i could wire them right into the cars power sourse and if so could someone explain how to do it...
i also want to wire one of the strobes to replace my turnk light i was wondering if that too was possible

you can definately do that.... it just requires figuring out wich wire is positive and which is negative(ground), hook the negative to a ground point. and hook the positive to a toggle switch (or your fuse panel, prbly not to safe). i have my radar detector hook up the the ignition fuse so that when you start the car the radar detector turns on. the trunk thing is a little harder.... damn mercucy switches.

Re: lighting and wireing it



^^ 20" neon light in trunk that has replaced the little light bulb..all wires were snugged up into the old lights housing. Cannot see them.

About hiding those wires.. if i was you, hit up a local auto parts store like pepboys, advance auto, or w/e and get one of those multiple accessories source that can be mounted under the dash and then hide the cords with some black wire loom... Its kind of hard to explain...But make it custom.
