Hi all,

I would like to get a single neon tube in my boot install (when I finally get around to installing it all that is)

Is it just a simple matter of cutting the cigarette lighter adapter off and connecting the red wire to the + on the battery and - the negative?

P.S. I will have a battery close in my boot

:)

simple... i did it in my boot install but ran 2 of them

cut the lighter socket off the end... join the neon to the standard light fitting in your boot and therefore it will only be on when boot is open....

aha! even better :)

easy as... only problem i came across is that the little light fitting dosent come out much.. so it was hard to split the wires and join new ones....

oh and remember to take out the interior light fuse when your connectiing it all up

in the fusebox its one of the bottom right ones.... too easy

    • To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...
    • Good old Orange Park hey... 😛   f**k I miss that race track
    • lo, it was a death trap. Good times. Got any Fatz Drift Day DVDs still available?
    • Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.
    • Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
