Underbody neons or inside neons?

I wired my neons up to the battery and ran a switch for them.

As for my nozzle lights, I wired them to a switch also and wired them to my turn signals. So they only signal in whichever direction I'm signaling and are on only when I want them to be on. I mostly just use them in rain/foggy weather.

Or if I feel like a race.

well thanks but nevermind. i installed the nozzle lights and they don't work. i pulled my neons out of the box and one is cracked so looks like my x-mas presents are going back to the d@mn mailman.

I like the blink with turn signal idea... I hate those nozzle lights, but turn signal nozzles might not be bad.

well assuming that greg takes all this ish back, i might be getting a CAI instead. neons are cool but i really don't like the idea of the tube being visible since i don't have a body kit. plus a CAI is more fun.

Yeah, I did not want them to be on all the time. I mean, what's the point of that? And I also painted mine body color with some touch-up paint so it's not that gaudy cheap chrome.
