I think the only place neons will look good is in the two opening's on the WS6 hood.

Neons belong on imports and no where else....... that's just my opinion of course.

I wouldn't do the neons, but it's your car so do whatever you like.

You are right but I saw a WS6 with a neon in side the two opening's and it look kind of mean.

I wouldn't put neons on my new Z, but I loved em when they were on my old Firebird..

Man, its your car, do whatever makes you happy. You've got the muscle to back it up..

I think the only place neons have on an F-body are under the dash.

The pic doesn't do them justice...

Don't do it! The only place neons belong are on ricers and in bars on the wall advertising beer.

I wouldn't put them on the outside of the car. But, I have the same setup as Thunder175, I put a red neon under each side of the dash, and I also wired up some LED's in each of my A/C vents so they glow red. All of it is wired to a switch so I just flip it and the entire interior glows red. Looks pretty badass IMO, gives a sort of cockpit feel.

artic you have pics of that? im interested in seeing that. Been thinking about doing some red ones myself in my black z.

im in the middle of "rice-ing up" my car as some slowstang driving coworker told me yesterday. rice or not, that **** looks bad ***!

Jpr...i would do interior neons and leave the exterior. just seems to me like they would break too often. If you like something, go with it though. TOo many guys here are hung up on the rice fettish. any appearance mod becomes suspect of rice. Its your money, your car.

I don't have pics as of now b/c my car is in the shop (BAD synchro + possibly needing new gears). PM me and I'll take some pics when I get it back early next week.

Instead of actual neon's under the dash, I would use a Cold Cathode Kit for a PC... much brighter than a neon, uses less current too.
