Well I've done bike LEDS for sometime now, and I would steer clear from neon! they break and are much harder to install! Stay with some good quaility LEDS, my supplier is Boogey Lights your gonna need more than one kit and if you decide to go with LED give me a shout, I can cut you a deal, since I'm selling the HD I'll outfit my Vette and take it to Hooters and so forth, at least that way I can bring my inventory and displays! Oh I Can't Wait!


Sorry, no links to non-supporting vendors.......here is the rule:

i was planning on an LED kit for the underbody portion and a cold Cathode kit for the gille lights. i got the gille idea from here:


I'd hook them up to a switch so i could run it at evening/night shows. but i'd have to find a way to get the car up in the air first.

you can also hook them all to a remote, like i did on my HD, then with a click of a button you can turn them on/off and make them flash. Comes in handy when people are looking at your ride and you want to mess with them!

I had neon on my MINI TRUCK,, got the set up when neon was just starting out to be installed on cars. This was like 1987. it was purple and glowed real cool, I had cars giving me the thumbs up and taking pics all the time. Back then , it was different and cool. To be on a vette, well, thats just worng. I look at it today and think its kinda cheezy. I feel that lites in the gills look ok at night. but underbody, speaker and engine lights are not right, A vette should be aimed towards performance, not all bling. I like chrome, but chrome covers , to me, hold in heat, and just make it hard to clean the part you covered. Leave the neon to ricers and fair ground cruizers. Buy a impala and pimp it out if ya want bling. ( EG is exempt,,,BTW)...

might as well ingrave pot leaves to the windows and install that van strip lighting inside when ya install the neon underbody ....
