Default Streetglow(questions)

So i just got the multicolor LED kit for the undercar for a great price =)
but anywhos, justa few questions, i have my crappy neons on mine now and they pretty much suck, only problem is i couldn't find a gap or place to fit my front tube(the sides and the rear fit perfect because of the groves designed in he undercarriage of the tC) but the front doesn't seem to hav ea grove or gap to place the tube(and i dont want it snapping off since i always bottom out,lol)

Any suggestions on where to place the tubes?

Another thing, when i opened the package i saw this remote thing(attached to wires i think) that goes inside the car to change the colors and patterns

If anyone has this kit or something similar just let me know where you placed the remote(inside)

Install is tuesday so anything before that would be great.thanks



ALSO...(sorry,lol)
I have 6 12" Cold Cathode tubes(interior lights) that i'm looking to place inside

already have 2 installed under each dashboard,2 custom fit under the seats,but i have 2 left over,any ideas as to where to place them.My audio system is only one box with a sub so idk if that would be a good idea but just let me know.Install and everthing is free so it doesnt matter.thanks.

not a whole lot of options for the other 2 CC tubes. Just hook'em up in your room while you budget for a custom sub box and then wire them into that.

Or try and wire them to your engine bay behind your grille.


dont know what to tell you about the undercar stuff. did you take off your previous set of neons?

yeah i think i'll throw the 2 extra 12"s in my engine bay(thanks)

no,the underbody kit is still on,the two side skirts and the rear fir perfectly,but the front they had to place in the grill which looks stupid(because there isnt any color on the road uner the car)

if anyone has sometime if you could snap a few quick shots of the front underlining that would be great(im at work so im kinda stuck)

I did the exact same thing as you did with the front one.

But I aimed it outside of the bottom grill so that the road has light from it. and the control box I put it in my glovebox with the double sided tape that was provided to me in my kit.

For the front one, pt ut it onthe bottom of the bumper support and aim it slightly to the front so that the LEDs are facing the outside and not straight down so that you can get some of the light on the road and it won't look funny that way either, mine looks pretty cool with the grill lit up and all the colors changing behind it.

BTW, I don't have the Streetglow one, its a kit off Ebay that works great.

Let me know if you need pix of the front tube on my car and I will get you some.

That is exactly what i did for my front l.e.d 's. I mounted the front light by cutting a small piece about 2 inche radius around the bottom of the car where it has all that plastic to prevent water to splash all over the engine. The exact location was where the bottom of the lower engine mount is located, but i will try to post some pics so you can see exactly.
