I once thought of doing the neon kit but decided against it, for a few reasons. I wanted to doing something but not real flashy. So I came up with doing 3 strobes (blue), 1 in the opening of the spoiler in the front, and 1 on each side of the air vents just behind the front tires. I also used "ice blue" bulbs in place of my parking lights. I does give it a real nice effect at night. No bulbs can be seen and hidden quite well. My wife did a video and if I can find it I will post it.

This is correct, the neons are not working over the long haul do to the harshness of vehicles

LEDs are emerging markets for under lights. LEDs are much more durable.
