Gold series is good, but LED is the next best thing in lighting for today and future.

Neons are brighter, but LED's last longer. The choice is up to you.

I'd say go with the LEDs, they won't break.

you will be able to do more with leds than neons... neons are limited to a few color combinations, while most good leds bars will allow you to change multiple colors with multiple patterns.

I have LEDs under my xb... I can make the lights go "arround" the car and also have them blink and do tons of things

my LED's are white and very bright... go with LEDs

I too am all for LED's... but the funny thing is, Street Glow offers Life Time warranty on "neon" but only a 2 year warranty on LED. Wonder how they got that???

Cost per part is cheaper with neon.
