Easy, hidden
What I did with mine is to cut the back of my floor lighter (i don't know if your car is equiped) and used the power source to connect to the switch and eventually the neons... there are plenty of electrical parts to "tap into", but I'd recommend having a fuse for everything.

Re: interior neone lighting
Your car has foot rests?? I want foot rests!
Anyway, I have one in my trunk that I tapped into the trunk light, so it comes on when the trunk lid is opened. And I have two underneath the dash on either side, and I spliced those two wires together, and plug them into the cig lighter. Thats just temporary though. And likeSeanscho said, there is plenty of stuff you can tap into to get power.

i have 2 under the front dash on each side and one drilled into the foot area of my backseat. I have htem hooked up to my cig light fuse and have the toggle switches under the wheel to the right drilled into my dash. to wire the car..... pull off that plastic piece on your door trim for your ground and drill a screw into that metal and have the postive go into the fuses. also have a wire running to the back neon through that plastic piece... i have it wired and you cant see any wires in my car. I'll take pics if you want but im sure you can pull it off... sorry i typed a lot, good luck and dont short circuit your car.

I had two under my dash and one by the foot area in my back seat and i ran a wire to the battery and to the toggle switch. had my in car neons and windshield washer nozzel lights wired to two switches the same way. If you do it that way use a fuse. I learned that lesson the hard way!

Re: interior neone lighting
If you plan on adding more electrical parts in the future, like guages and such I recommend buing the following. I have one in my car and its very easy to install.
