Too a switch so you can turn them on and off . Wire from a + DC source be it battery, lighter, fuse block whatever to an inline fuse to the switch (one you are going to purchase and install) and then from the switch to the +wire of the neon unit. Wire the other side of the neon unit to ground. If from this description you need further help I would suggest a professional installer.

honestly, electrical can be tricky if you don't know what you're doing. consider having them installed at a stereo shop.

Yea, what terriblted said.

There is a positive and negative cable off of the neon. If you touch these to the battery they should light up.

Connect the negative (black) to anything that is metal (a screw for example) and connect the positive to a switch like he said.
