yeah, i met 16. lol, 8 guage would be crazy. i was pretty tierd and wirting quick last night.

you could use my way, you just need to find a fuse that is always on.. like.. i dunno, i'm sure theres one thats ussaly always running?



fuse thats always on? that does make sense, if you put a fuse in a connection it basically "works" all the time. It's just limiting the amount of current passing through the wire.

im pretty sure that ima stay with the simple one,cause i dont think im ever going to want the neon on when the interior lights arent on..NaderG can i have the link to this 23$ lights?


OK , i have been looking at a bunch of prices latey so i made a mistake ! its actually 27.99 and i am not sure if it is free shipping , sorry about that biggrin.gif well , here is the website

www.ledunderbody.com

I have another question : If i tap into my cigarette lighter wire and have both the LEDs on and my phone charging through the lighter , wouldnt that fry the wire ??



No it wont fry your wire, and but remember theres only so much it current it can give.



If you want to have the ability to turn on and off the exterior and interior "lights" in your car you can simply do the following


[Battery]--->(fuse)-----(distribution block)


From the distribution block have two switches. One switch for the inside and another for the outside.


PS - those are expensive. -> www.ledunderbody.com

Try oznium instead.


well , true , they are cheaper but theese are LEDs which will match the rest of my car's LEDs colour , they also come wired with a fuse and controls ... saves me from half the wirring headache

nader are u sure neon on interior is legal ina vert in cali?Cuase i talked to some cops,no i wasnt in trouble,and they said any extensive lighting is not allowed when your car is in motion and if it discractes other drivers,now i was thinking is there anyway to like rig up a rader detecor that can turn off the neon when it goes off,cause i have a rader detector and it has saved my ass more than once,i asked about neon under the car but in avert its all outside,i would check if b4 u spend $.

keyword " extensive " I actually done research in this area and asked arround , apparently under dash kits are ok since they dont distract other drivers and are for the sole purpose of lighting the interior of the car ... it really depends on the cop who will see them , i will install them and see what happens , i think i would just get a 10$ fix it ticket at worst , i think if i do get pulled over , the cop would let me go once i turn them off .
