this should help. but be careful. if your neon pull too much current you will blow fuse. i recommend going to the ingition harness and using the wiring guide to the extreme bottom of the post.

You need to make sure you have the converter as well. Neon's do not run directly off of DC power, so most kits come with a converter. Check the instructions to make sure you have it! Also, to make sure the lights work just plug them directly into the battery and see if they light up. Make sure you get the +/- figured out or you could really mess something up...like the lights.

Yes, Postive to power line, Negative to ground. Honestly, pop your hood and stick the damn thing to the battery, if it lights up then it works! If it doesn't then you've got other problems.
