To those who have neons in the car...

What are you using to hold them in place.
I was using 3m auotmative tape. The kind you use to put like body kits on and such.
Well they don't seem to work as well with the interior of the car.

I don't want to screw the things in. So any other suggestions?

make sure the surface is CLEAN..VERY CLEAN...use isopropyl alchol on the surface your gonna put the tape on. It will stick. imagine 2 peices of MDF (speakerbox plywood) that are stuck together..and i couldnt even pull it apart...needed a screwdriver to pry them apart....3m tape will make ANYTHING stick..as long as its clean and oil/residue free.

I agree with 3M products. As long as you clean everything as deep as you can. (Get all the ArmorAll out!!!!!)

"Rice Rice Baby, Rice Rice Baby...
Alright stop - collaborate and listen,
Rice is back with a brand new invention.
Chopped springs, they hug tha road tightly,
6 inch exhaust tip flows really loud nightly.
Will it ever stop, yo, I don't know,
hit my neon lights , and I'll glow.




To tha extreme my car looks like a candle,
and tha paint job - it was done by a vandal.
Dance, I got a speaker that booms,
this aint a car, it's a mobile sound room.
Deadly, listen to tha dope melody,
if it was louder yo, it'd be a felony.
Love it or leave it you can't gain way,
with my Type-R sticker I'll lose you any day.


If there was a problem yo I'll solve it,
check out my rims while my front drive revolves it,
Rice Rice Baby, Rice Rice Baby...


Now that my suspension is jumpin',
my bumper hits tha ground, but who cares I'm a thumpin.
Quick to tha point, to tha point no fakin',
cookin' mopeds like a pound of bacon.
Burning 'em, cause I'm quick and nimble,
you can't fade me and my VTEC symbol.
In your souped up E-clipse or G-T-O...
I'm on a roll, I always ride solo.
Rollin', in my 2 point 0,
it runs low 18's, yo, that really ain't slow.
Tha girlies on stand by,
don't even want to say "Hi".
Did ya stop? No, I just flew by.
Kept on, pursuing to tha next block,
I bust a left and I'm headin' to tha next stop.
The block was dead, yo, so I continued to A-1-A, Westheimer Avenue!


Tha girls looked hot wearing less than bikinis,
I saw a few chumps drivin' stock Lamborghini's.
Jealous, cause I'm out drivin' mine,
ready to race 'cuz my Nittos lookin' fine.


If there was a problem, yo I'll solve it,
check out my rims while my front drive revolves it,
Rice Rice Baby, Rice Rice Baby...


Take heed, 'cause I'm a Honda poet,
Akimoto's on tha scene just in case ya didn't know it.
My exhaust tip, created all tha bass sound,
rumbles enough to put holes in tha ground.
'Cause my ride's style is so reeeeeeeeeeeeal,
with an exhaust tone that ya can feeeeeeeel.
4 foot spoiler, it's a helluva concept, my ride is hype, and you wanna
step
WITH THIS.
In my rearview you'll fade,
slice like a Ginsu,
sounds like a Kitchen- Aid.
So fast, that all tha VR-4's say "DAMN!",
if rice was a drug I'd sell it by tha gram.
Keep my composure when the front tire breaks loose,
magnetized by the kick of 30 horse juice.
If there was a problem, yo I'll solve it,
check out my rims while my front drive revolves it,
Rice Rice Baby, Rice Rice Baby...

Yo, we outta here..."
