Put two sets of neons to cover the entire area?

Neons come in 12" 24" 36" and 48" sizes, so do the math what size you want to fit where. Most of the neons you get are imported from various places so makes and availability varies. Blues are common other colors are mostly available on order. new LEDs are 7 colors in one with multiple patterns.

Cheers,

Arush

The LED ones don't spread much so u can't cover the whole area. There are tube type ones which are abt 1.5k and are pretty good. You do get stuff from Streetglow but those would be a bit too expensive.

And since ur in delhi, Autopsyche might help u get whatever u need

Oh, btw the Lancer looks wicked!!!!!

Hey guys,
was thinking about Neons on the car, but are they safe?
I mean will they break easily and is there anyway to stop them from breaking?

Some neons come with a plastic covering. I've had them on my Nexia for a pretty long time, and they didn't break.

May be you can use an ordinary 2 feet tubes and put them in a hard 11/4" transparent pipe and convert the 20 volts into 12v.readymade circuits are available and these shine to bright as if you are driving a UFO u can put 2+2 on sides and 1+1 in front and rear without battries going on low and the best part they dont fuse or get hurt by jerks in breaks unless and until you hit the car fron underneath.

These are tubes used in disco'z and they come in yellow,green.purple,aqua.neon blue orange and red and costs not more than Rs.130 per tube so even if 1 breaks its affordable

4 feet neon tube cost Rs 600 @ N.Delhi says this post

and it better to ride safe with tube neons under your car.

hey Revtec Rs.130 are the cost for tubes (green,yellow,aqua,red,pink,blue,neon blue)
rest you have 2 connectors on each side to pass current to the tubes.A transparent pipe of 11/4"inch will cost you about Rs.15 per foot and the Transformer costs about Rs.100-120.and speaker wires do best and some alluminim Patti and some screws costs about Rs.50.U will be stunned when you switch on even 1 tube under car.The brightness is awsome and +its hand made,Just guess 1 2feet tube gives so much light in your house passage and when you fix under car its wonders

hi,
the tubes u guys r talking bout r make shift arrangement's,,
the real things r bit expencive and are quite vercitile in use ,,
there is this set of 4 tubes available (LED BASED)
with seven colors orange, purple, blue, green, red, pink, yellow..
these can be controlled from a remote control standing outside the car,,(remote similar to the central locking remote)
the are also voice activated, as they glow with the music beats,,
the white light looks awsome if u have xenon head lamps as well,,..
regards,,
driven
