First thing, I know you probably read the title and said "time to go tell some noob he's gay!"

Please don't, Im 18 and im going through the phase where I like the idea of interior neons, not over the top, but i do like a little illumination.

I used to have neons on my old Laser, but they were the ones that use cig lighter adapters, I don't like that idea and I don't wanna ruin my completely factory standard Skyline by hard wiring.

Anybody know of any ideas for interior illumination with a battery supply? Like a light with its own battery that I can replace that will just stick somewhere inside the cabin, LED or neon, i don't mind, but I want it to be self sufficient, so there's no running cabling to ruin my skyline's clean look if I decide to take it out.

Any help appreciated.

Hey mate,

I have 2 blue L.E.D neons under either side of my dash, They look really good, nice touch to the car,

What i did, is a run a power wire from the positive terminal of the batter, and install a switch in your car, and connect it all up,

My battery has never drained,

But last week i changed it to this:

i got the power wire and connected it to my Speedo lights dimmer, now it comes on with my lights, but its still connected to the switch, so i can still turn it off or on whenever i want too,

I have blue dash lights, Number plate lights, neons, so it all looks matched :/

heres a picture, not mine, but very similar, Looks nice. When you buy them, cut of the cigarette charger part

Good luck :P

you got a accessories running from the back of ur ciggi lighter its a orange wire on the 33's not sure about ur 34, wire it to that so when you turn ur car on they come on make sure you dont cut the transformer off the neons as you will f**k them up... i got 2 black light neons running under my dash similar to the blue ones in the pic posted they illuminate white products and look unreal

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
