Sorry to hijack your thread, but where is the light in the Gen 1 that lights up the floor ( I already did the search), like so many of you have? Thanks in advance.

I guess so, I checked josh's lighting guide. He didn't include them and I did a quick check of my "underdash", didnt see any bulbs. Or are these neons something you have to rewire on your own?

Yeah man, you have to reawire the neons yourself.
It not that hard.

Oh yeah back to the first person who posted this.
I did that to my gauges, and the HVAC controls.
Now that i have the white reverse glow gauges only on blue, the red from the halogen bulbs; looks so bad a$$.
But my HVAC controls are still yellowish color.

lilm111 - for the time/money, just buy reverse glows like you wanted. Heck buy with me (ie. 2) and we can split the shipping :wink: (assuming your an a/t).

Umm, yeah, I don't think there is a car that comes with under dash lighting stock. But I have a tutorial in my WWW link so you can wire it up to your door sensor system so they can turn on when you open your doors. I recommend cold cathode tubes over neon tubes tho. Neon suxx.
