i searched, nothing of the sort...neons

I was looking and noticed nobody has had a thread about neons (not the car, the light). I was just wondering if anyone on this board does have neons, or any other interior/exterior lighting modifications besides headlights, and taillights? If so post a pic, or just tell about them, or maybe no one here does that sort of thing and im just wasting my time

Since where on a neon question, I was wondering, should I get green neon interior lights (under the dash) or white? I was thinking white because that could be usable light (used with dome light for more light) or should I go on with the green theme?(I have green underbody lights) but that would only be for looks. Is white as bright as a green light? Brighter?

Well,
There used to be tons on neons in B15senrta.net, but those forums (the B14 parts) are closed. As for interior neons, yes white is 'brighter', but if green matches your theme then go green. Just keep a small flashlight in your glove compartment for additional lighting. Or do green and white and have two switches. One for looks, the other for function.

Seth

P.S. See my link below for an interior pic or look at my name in the members rides area.

You know what? I think I've already commented on your attitude. Don't make it an issue again.

It's not that you aren't allowed to have opinions. It's the way you state your opinions....like someone who has a chip on their shoulder. There are ways of stating opinions without making it sound like you are the worlds toughest bad-ass in the land.

After reading several of your posts, you really have some major growing up to do. When you do maybe you can join a nice family-type group like we have here.

What, you think this forum is a democracy? It's not an aristocracy either. If you act like a dumb punk expect to be treated as one.

all i know is i have been on this forum for only about a week...so far every question i have asked has been shot down and torn apart by people on this board. i have seen many other forums and people there support eachother and help eachother out. and also even if a question has been asked before, many people here are new and do not know that u can use the search, and also maybe they already used the search, and their question has not been answered to their satisfaction...well jsut somthing to think about

Actually, the word you were looking for is ARISTOCRACY. This forum is a hierarchy, in fact. You are more than welcome to have your own opinion, but you will do so respectfully or you will not be welcome here. Is this understood?

OK, BACK ON SUBJECT WE GO....

I have interior Blue neons in my car. I have 9" mini Street Glo tubes in the front and 12" mini Optx tubes in the rear. Just make sure there are no cops around if you have blue or red neons.
I Have pics of the night time shot and my switches on this page: http://1997ga16de.nissanpower.com/current.html

few more things:
1. Some people are asses, don't let them get to you.
2. You should be able to find more stuff around here, b/c I've definately seen a few posts on neon setups. all you have to do is use the search button above and try just the keyword "neon."
3. Reffering to someone mentioning the b15 forums: You know, all of our old posts and forums are still there. Just closed and hidden. You can search and still bring up some of our old stuff. Check it out, here's some links to our old "stomping" grounds

thanks, I painted the caps and letters. All I had was a can of red spray paint, so I sprayed the paint into the top of a jar and used a paint brush to get the detailed letters (about 4 coats on the letters), then I sprayed all the caps with light coats (thinking primer would have made it a bit easier b/c I had trouble gettin the paint to stick at first. it's not peeling, so I'm not complaining).

In the neon switches, first off, I have 3 switches (just for extras), I only really use 1 for the 4 inside neons. I used to use another for a neon I used to have in the trunk. I ran a lead from my parking lamp to a relay (you can pickup a Pilot relay at discount auto parts in the foglamp section). The relay will switch on only when the parking lamps are on. Then I have a lead straight from the battery to the relay, then to the 3 switches. The switches can be found at radioshack, and to get them In, I took out my radio and everything so I can get to just that plastic holder. then I drilled 3 holes in the plactic and screwed the switches in.

Good work man...I never thought of just painting the tops--that would def. save sum money..Yeah I think Ill do the same and primer would help...but I wonder if I should go white with it--I mean I know its all going to get pretty dirty--but then again it may be easier to clean a white sprayed part off then the actual metal
