Click for a big pic.
also, this is how I mounted my fronts:

the clear plastic piece is the place holder for the dash.

the white plastic pieces are just cable holders.

Cost a total of $35 for all six cathodes installed.

with your encouragement, I put it up right on SL. I did want to convert from html to BBcode, but I did. out of love for my fellow scionlifers.

I wasn't able to do all of the tubes but I did do a quick and dirty job on the drivers side. I went too fast on the hot glue and it ran down the cathode a little but no harm. With the tube over the cathode and electrical tape covering the top so only 180 degrees was visible the light showing through the steering column was cut down but not completely stopped. The floor still gets the same ammount of light as before so there is no drawback that I can see. I have a extra set of cathodes in the house that I am doing a clean job on so I can at least post up a picture of one tube outside of the car. I'll post the pic tomorrow night if all goes well.
had 4 on same location everyone has, another 2 on trunk floor, but broke one when i was loading my electric mower. since I haul alot of stuff in my xB, I decided to mount the other one by the end of the headliner. only lights up when door is open or dis-arm alarm, so no ticket from popo.
