Undercar LEDs/Neons

Can anyone explain where they mounted theirs and how exactly you did it? I'm worried about hitting fuel lines, wires and pipes etc. Pictures would be appreciated however, descriptions would be good enough. ;)
 
front and back of the car are a peice of piss, on the sides i put the bracket on the neon and held it as far into the gap between side skirt and car then marked it.

then drilled completly thru the bodywork ( :eek: ) and used a bolt from the inside to outside of the car (that fecker aint comin off). ill see if i can get some pics the car is gonna be up on the jack this friday anyway.

Heres a question.

I put it on a thread but not a new one for it.

I saw some undercar neons at santa pod for £30 (wish id bought some) but it said 'DO NOT USE ON CARS WITH ABS'.

Anybody know why? :confused:
 
They shouldnt have anything to do with the ABS (id hope :eek: )

Will take some process pics in a week or so while fittin mine on if you want darch ?

Can't see what ABS has to do with undercar lighting unless it suffers from epilepsi?? Pictures would be great guys, at the moment I've been drilling through the lip between where jack goes to jack the car up. I've only drilled one hole so far because I don't know if it's safe or not. I haven't mounted them on the skirts because I don't want them to be the lowest points on the car; should I go over a big speed bump, if you know what I mean.
 
im fittin mine near the Sideskirt themselves , but not quite in the middle. One idea if ur after full saftey would be to have them fitted snug with the skirt (so you'd need to destroy them to break ur neons) & a Triangle Mirror fitted in the middle with a Perspex shield. Would be piss easy to clean (i imagin neons dont shine so well when there manky) & be safer. Although is no doubt alot more work
 
Well , only just got the Neons purchased finalised yesterday , so pics should be up in 2-3 weeks since i gotta wait for the bastads to arrive.

Originally took a risk goin for a purple paint , so ive took another & orderd these neons in Pink :D. It will work lol

£110 in total , £35 of that on shipping since its from the states.

Coulda got much cheaper sets over here i guess , but with these im paying for a reputation , larger transformer & longer bulbs so hopefully they'll be worth the extra £50 odd
 
Hoping theres gonna be some at santa pod again! Last time they had them for £30 for all 4. Not sure on quality but was gonna get bytey to have a look at em
 
get max power ones by far the brightest on the market, also get remotes and function variants for them, have a look on eBay get em for around £50 +p&p very easy to install too :cool:
 
I bought some LED's from Singapore that are flashing with 8 different modes, remote and mounting kit with junction box. About £65.
 
im wondering where to attach my side neons, how did u guys get on?
 
err , well almost 3 month later i Still aint even tried to get em on lol. Although I did get the car ramped last week for other things & really had a thought about the Side neons.... And even with the Phase 2 Skirts , theres not really anywhere you can hide em or even make em safe for mounting
 
i just took mine to a garage who did it in about 10 minutes. was great until one neon just died as i drove along a motorway stretch. dunno what to do now.
 
Got mine on the other day , took about 5 hours (if it took 10mins mate , thats probably why there broke) which gave us time to Fit the bulbs securely (vibrations on the chassis will break them if there bulbs) safley hide all the wires, join them all up with connecting blocks , a plastic sleeve & a jacket of insulation tape & the transformer mounted in the engine bay.

one thing we noticed though , the wiring on this stuff is very very important , ie the ones im usin , 9500V transformer , if a bare wire hit the chassis it wouldnt do much good for the cars electronics.

Will get some pics of where there Mounted for ya

Cheers mate looking forward to seeing them. Did you drill any holes under the car for the wiring, wouldn't mind seeing where you decided to drill?
