Allright I got lights in my car 4 in fact what you need is just some general power line/cable, a in line fuseholder and fuse, and a toggle switch (3 prong power, ground , and power for the toggle light itself if U want it fancy. You then just run your fuse about a foot away from your battery, run this to the toggle( you will also need butt connectors) then run power from power out to your lights(I suggest under seats) ground your lights from their ground wire to a steel bolt that will ground it. you can then turn on and off the toggle which will then turn on the lights hope this has been helpful to you.

or if you wanna do it the easy way go to wal mart they sell the little things that the neons plug into its kinda like a cig lighter without the acual lighter part all you have to do is run it to a power source and ground it and there you go

yeah you could go that route to just remember that it needs some sort of toggle that you can shut off or unplug.. with his setup form what I figure the toggle switch/ turning toggle inline, would be under the hood ....not the best for turning on and off?

Yea, and what would happen if you connected a neon with a toggle already on it into another toggle with the rest of your lights?

you coud use the other lights to power the neon lights that way you dont have to worry bout turning them on
