electrical lines, etc.
While the vehicle is raised up on a lift or jack determine the best location for
the neon tubes. Make sure they are away from all fuel lines, exhaust systems,
areas of extreme heat, moving parts, and areas where a lift jack is used to raise
the vehicle.

within your reach. Wiring for the switch can be run through a grommet in the
firewall, into the engine compartment where it can be connected to the battery.
The switch and fuse, that will be included in your neon under car lights kit,
