Under-Dash neons to come on with headlights?
Monday, September 10, 2007 7:36 PM
Im pretty sure of how I want to do this based on another thread.

I was going to run a fused signal wire off the parking light on the drivers side, to a relay that would turn on my 2 10" neons that I have under my dash (to light up the "foot area" on the floor)

Is there a more "interior" way to do this? By that I mean, not running a wire from outside the car to into it.

I dont want a seperate switch for the neons, I want a "factory appeal" (if you will) I had them in my sunfire and a LOT of people thought they were stock, and like them. I think its a nice touch.

Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!

thickest brown wire in driver foot/carpet panel is 12v+ parking light.

yah, your way to do it is fine. just be sure to use solder not t-taps when splicing into a factory wire.

Tap into the Headlight fuse in the fuse panel.
