For those with Lite Glow Neons under dash

How long do you keep them on for? Have any of you guys experienced short-outs or anything after keeping them on for a while?

I had cheap neons before and ran the risk of burning them out after having them on for a while (I burned out 3 or 4 neons). I just wanted to know if anyone had probs since I just Lite Glows instead.

Well I have cheap ones running also. I put one way up under the drivers dash so that it would never get in the way of my knees or me kicking it off by accident.

I hooked them up by Wire Ties. Just used it and wire tied it again two of the existing large wires and BOOOM, it is secure.

The one in the passender side, is actually in the lower left corner. Could not put it anywhere under the passenger dash cause no access with the glove box there, so i put it in the lower corner way down in there so same thing, they would not kick it off.

How did you hook your neons up? Just to the fuse panel or something?

Just tapped it off some wire in the fuse panel that was switched.

Did you add your own switch or use something in the car already?

I hooked mine up to a switch to my battery. But did anyone have any probs with their neons shorting out or not?
