Underbody Neon Installation

[SolaraGuy22]

First of all Happy New Year to everyone.

I will be installing my underbody neons tomorrow since that is the only time that was available for the lift. Are there any tips or tricks to make it a smooth installation? Hopefully I can hide the tubes as best as I can until I buy side skirts. How many of you have done this already?


Thanks for your help,

I have white neon underglows...

installation was pretty easy... all of my tube are hidden..

I used alot of wire ties to make sure the wires are all secure and in tack...

[SolaraGuy22]

Are they hidden because you have the TRD kit or in general they would be hidden?

Does anyone have any DIY pics or links? Or if you really wanna be nice grab your cam and take a couple for me?

My car is sitting in the garage right now and i dont have room since its raining out side...

but as soon the rain stops ill try to snap a couple of pics..

my underglow are hidden under the car. even if i have the TRD kit off you can see it.. its on the under/inside of the frame.

Actually nevermind, I just got done putting them on. They look sweet. I have to get side skirts to hide the bulbs. They aren't that visible though. I'll post pictures as soon as I can.

Mine were pretty much hidden before my TRD kit, but after the kit it made it look a lot better

Any pics of the install?

[FLASH]

I put some pictures up just a moment ago

I will put detailed pictures and better pictures along with some instructions (it's pretty simple once you see what you're working with)

Take care

*remember to use that 105% price match that Car Domain.com offers, saved me quite a bit.

wow that is some great light output! But do you have any pics of like HOW the tubes are attached, and where?

[michaels artic frost]

Looks great! Mad props!

[SolaraGuy22]

FLASH, you don't really have much to work with but I will get some detailed pics for you, along with some instructions. With the way they are put on you need side skirts to hide them. That's where Artic Mike with the kits come in. I'll get back to you in a day or two.

man, that looks good. im going to do mine too, but im really not that savoy about electric wires. how hard was it?

[Akfahad]

finally finished my cardomain page...page 5 has my car with the underbody kit. wish the pictures came out better.

Install wasn't all that bad, but i had a prior electrical wiz help me out. i should've took pictures, but I secured the two side tubes by drilling thru the metal piece that comes down from the frame where you would put the jack to take your tire off. that was kinda a pain. you'll definitely need some zip ties for the excess wires between tubes.
As for the front, there really isn't much there to fasten it to. i ended up mounting it behind a rectangular plastic piece below the radiator.
The back, i unscrewed one of the fastener's for the rear bumper and slid the tube up in there.

hope that helps for anybody

That's pretty much what I did, I'll take some close ups of the clips and screws that were put in place. I just bought a TRD kit from Michael which will cover up the side ones that are visible.

Hey Akfahad what brand do you have? They don't seem that bright. I believe we placed ours in the same place too.
