Default Neons.

Ok imma assume this is goin to to go under ICE mods feel free to move. But I know lil to none about brands. What is a good brand? Heres the deal my fiancee wants to get me some neons for my tC (she likes pretty lights shes eaisly amused and will admit this to you if you ask her). So ive been searching for them and finding out that the front and rear neons come in various sizes 24"-36" I have a sw with the kaminari kit. Should I just measure? Also are there any brands I should stay away from I found this autoglow brand but dunno if thats an autozone brand or not. Please help!

you are talking about underbody neons right? try ebay. doesnt really matter what brand. if there's a warranty on it then get it. and you really dont need to measure..the longer ones are gonna go on the sides and the shorter ones in the front and rear.

if you're talking about interior, i say go to walmart. back in the day my bro had a bunch of neons in his car before he took it out. he ordered from various places but the walmart ones were the best. they lit up really good, didnt break, and easy to install pretty much anywhere.

You'd probably like to shy away from NEONS and look for LED setups.... They'll last longer and won't break as easy... a lot of them are also flexible as well...

Interior wise, I'd do the LED overhead modification to bring some color to the inside...

yo buddy, don't go with neons, go with leds. trust me and wedrivescions. neons break too easily. imo, no matter who makes em.

imo, the flowlighting blaze 7 color kit is the best bang for the buck. but if you have a grand or so to spend on these go with the iceled ufo

coolness.

and pete my boy.... i have gotten so much feedback about my clown, i am never getting rid of it! until i find something equally disturbing.

I was even threatened by mike (david's "trophywhore" dad "EXPIRIENCE") that he would get a mod to remove it for me.
