dunno much at all about 'neons', but cant you just cut the lighter plug off and piggyback the wires onto something behind the fuse box? if you buy one that doesnt plug to your lighter your gonna need to do some wiring anyway surely? :?

especially if there footwell ones - wire them to the door pin to come on when door opened - will come on also when you flick the interior light also :D disconnect or simpler, remove blub from normal yella lighgt in roof

if its boot - wire it into the boot light - take blub out and put spade connectors on.

jobs a gudden

well like i said.............. pull the interiror light out or whatever you want it wired to

you need to find the +ve and -ve wire from the 2 by using a test meter really.

then splice into the wires for the neons (include a manual overide switch if you want)

then either simply take the existing bulb out, leave it in, or disconnect it
