I need help with my neons!!!!

I have two streetglow tubes in the interior that run out of the power outlets, and i also have an 5ft elwire that has a transformer with it and I would like to hook those to my pilot switch that I just bought and then run them to my battery. Do I cut the wire where it goes into the lighter and hard wire it into somewhere? I need a walk-through on this cuz i never used neons before and since i just got a 98 civic Ex, I thought I would do it. Please HElp Me!!

you need to connect the wires to a power source of some sort. It could be a constant power source or an ignition power source... thats up to you...
