Interior Neons Installing??

Hi there I was wondering if there is any tips how to install my interior neons?

There is no stick the plug into the car cig lighter hole.

My cousin previously installed these for me for my VW Polo a few years ago but he is away right now so I want to really install them before I damage them by accident..

I would like to learn how to wire it correctly without it being a hazard and what to wire it to exactly..if possible?

thanks


Here are the neons I have bought from eBay below.

You could tap the interior fuses or pull the 12v power off the cigarette lighter.

I have a separate switch that pulls power from the cigarette lighter to power my LED bars.

Well lay the tubes out and see how you want to tuck your wires.
Then find a good place to mount them. I used a bunch of zip ties.
Next, find a place to mount a switch or control box to power them on,
Finally, connect them all to your power and ground connections.

If you are nervous about splicing wires you could get a 12v cigarette lighter power plugs and wire the power cables that way.
