Wiring

Ok so I need to know the best way to wire stuff inside my car. extra stuff like neons and stuff. Some of my friends just run the wire between the door. Another friend said i can wire them to my cars fuse box. I dont know. If anyone has pointers or suggestions let me know thanks

You can wire them to the fuse box because there should be some openings in the box. This is the preferred method as running the wire through the door can cause issues and lets face it finding an opening in the firewall isn't easy.

really depends, what all would you be wanting to wire up?

If you're talking underglow then good luck... a good clean way would be to wire it up through the grommet piece of the firewall located under the steering wheel.. its waaay tucked under there, it comes out right behind your fuse box inside the engine bay, that way if you're doing underglow you can just have the wires run straight down and out - I wouldnt recommend under car neons tho, they break easy and are illegal to drive with in most states if not all

as for internal though, a good mounting piece for a switch would be the center console located next to the gas pedal.. theres a bend sort of shape and you can drill through the appropriate hole size, pick up rocker switches from auto zone for on/off if they dont come with a set already

Alright now how would I wire to the fuse box?

Oh and its just interior Not underglow. I live in Minnesota underglow would be detroyed the first winter lol.

I had a set of underglow on my grand am during the winter in MN, never had a problem thay never broke, just drive careful. Also run a nice sized power wire through the firewall, for future power additions such as neon and stuff like that. If you dont want to go the firewall route you could find another path, i knew someone who ran it throught the door seal, up and under it, it was different, but it worked. I have also seen people go behind the front fender and go through behind it, also a nice way to go it comes through by the petals along the side wall. you can hide it right under the carpet, and you always have a hot power wire you can run others off of to connect to switches, ect...

also they sell fuse tap adapters to make installing things into the fuse box easily.

The rubber groomet on the drivers side firewall is the best place to access through thier IMO.
