I have an 04 Monte Carlo SS and just bought 10" neon tubes for underneath my pedals and on the passenger side. How do I wire these to my headlights so that when my headlghts turn on, so do the neons? In other words, where is the headlight wire and what color is it?

hmmmm idk how to do that, but i wonder if it would be easier to wire up to your ignition, so when u turn your car on, your neons will turn on.

either that or u can just hook it up to your battery and a switch..... lol its a lot easier that way.

like the tank said, a toggle switch is your best bet. There are going to be times when you have your headlights on that your not going to want some blast of neon in your interior. Not only will it make it harder to see out your windows (mirror effect) making it unsafe for you and others around you but will most likely get annoying at times. If you think neons look cool, which is debatable at best, at least have the options to drive around at night with them off.
