Interested in mod, need advice

Hey guys, need some advice

I want to put 4 neon tubes
1 under steering wheel
1 under glove box
2 under back seats

I want them to work with dome light (the center light on top interior)

Anybody knows where do I have to connect the wires from the neon tubes?

The pillar that runs up on the drivers side windshield. The tweeter is in it. It pulls off and snaps back on. Once you remove it, their is a bundle of wires. Look for the colors I marked.

I guess you could if you want...just letting you know, what I know. If you do it like I showed you, it will work! Any other way your on your own.

Thanks, I figured out its better to do it through the pillar so that the connection can be hidden.

Another question, here is the tubes I got



I got 4 pieces. I want to do them under the back seats to. So two of them have to be glued to the back seats (under the seats) and two in front. So what type of glue or how would you recommend me to glue or attach them to the car?
Thanks

You can use 3m double stick tape.

Wow! It looks like a audi?
