Wiring Neon UnderGlow
 
Just wondering the easiest way to do it. Best/easiest place to run wires etc; also, what kind of toggle switch do I buy? Is there a certain kind?

There is no way to do it, it adds weight and is often dis-respected - from this scenario the exhuast is too hot for lights. It decreased fuel mileage, increases engine load, and is illegal in some places.

BUT, IF THAT DOESNT STOP YOU
-Switch (connects positive):I would use the hole for the shifter for wiring wire up to the ash tray (or to glove box from there)
-Hooking up: use the ground from the car or exhaust (or from radio surround see above) Put the lights to either side of the frame rail that looks least likely to melt and be seen. You can put the rear one in the lip of the bumper and the intercooler area (covered by a reflective piece to prevent bulb visibility)
-Kit : Buy the cheapest one possible

Please don't do this on your rx-7

How does it decrease fuel mileage?...lol

Anyway you might want to try the audio visual section man you will get better answers there. Oh and you are about to get flamed..

Come on guys, stop looking at the negatives.

Im sure the neons will help you pick up more guys, and get you all the man ass you can handle. :gay:

Tournapart 12-17-05 11:23 PM

go find a civic to do this to, sevens deserve more respect than this

Your going to have to crawl under there and figure it out for yourself...I don't think to many of us have done that before.

Also, you can use what ever kind of switch you want. But it would be best to run that thru a relay. Don't want to over load the switch.

Flame fest, you guys reemed him good, sell the lights and buy things that matter

bobafc3s 12-18-05 02:34 AM

i truly believe that this is just a waste of a post...but thats just IMO this is too :Kill1:

WHAT THE GELL DOES "FATF" MEAN!? I've asked that question a million freakin times and nobody answers. My guess is it it something you'd get suspended for if you wrote it out and the acronym probably shouldn' be posted either. You guys need to grow up and not say anything if you don't have anything nice to say. I've asked dumb questions too and I got honest responses and people who though I was dumb for asking about an alternator belt just didn't post on the thread. But you guys, all you do is laugh and poke funk because you assume you are the only ones on earth that can appreciate an FC. It's just a car.... act your age.

omfg, 7's are road cars, supercars if you will, every generation gets the same respect in my eyes, without fb's/fc's my car would not exist, so I'm responding the same way I would if somone posted about doing underglow on an fd!

DUDE WTH! these are cars that are one in a million! get a civic or eclipse to put underglow on, seriously man, our cars are meant to be classy japanese supercars, not rice! Underglow=bad! ppl with crx's put on underglow! However it is your car to do what you want with it!

SayNoToPistons 12-22-05 04:07 PM

RX-7tII88 12-23-05 10:13 AM

Why do people care so much about other peoples cars. Who cares if he puts underglows on it. It's his car and money. Do what you want man, dont listen to these guys.

Warui Shujin 12-26-05 01:28 AM
