Interactive!!! Pulsing neon...

i did a pulsing neon underglow for a Tamyia S2000. Black metallic, into a fiery red paintjob, w/ red neon. I took a set of tireflys that i bought for a couple of bucks at walgreens, some tinfoil and modeling glue to create the underbody glow. unfortunately i got some glow in the windshield. dont have any pics either. :mad: but anyway, you can create this effect by taking out the entire tirefly assy. out of its protective case, find a mounting spot in the interior of the model (somewhere where it wont be seen, i pu mine in the engine compartment, in front of the tranny) and use tinfoil, cut and glue, on the insides of the model to reflect the light to where you want it. u can also make a steady beam by wiring the light so it bypasses a resistor with a piece of tinfoil. IMPORTANT!!! this will not work if you do not BEND the activation spring so it makes contact with the metal contacts next to it. if you dont, you have to shake the car to get the glow to work. not fun.. another thing. you also need a way of turning the glow off, i used a thin piece of paper to separate the battery from the contact.

tirefly?????

tirefly?????

uumm........... :iagree:

A tirfly is a neon lite that you can attach to the rim of your wheel on a 1:1 car.

a tirefly is a valve stem cover with a motion activated led light available at any walmart...
