Interior Neons, Help needed! Options

[danny_t82]

I have 8 small blue neons which I am planning on fixing in the footwells and door pockets. I have run a cable with an inline fuse holder (10A) to a switch in my glove box. When I tested these with one of the neons I blew the fuse. I am rubbish at electronics and am hoping someone can tell me how to get this right! PLEASE!!! When I wired all 8 thru the cigarette lighter they were all pretty dim hence I went for the battery direct method.

Somebody save me before I blow a fuse!!

"I did the same thing player did.....buy neons that plug into your gig lighter (fyi they have fauses in the lighter attachment so its safe).....then buy a 4-way adapter and just run the wires and hide them under your seat or where-ever you want....... i got my 4-way at wall mart for like 5 bucks and i just cut the end off and spliced those into a 12V source ( like the back of your cig lighter)......plus then you can wire them to a cool switch )also got at wallmart)"



wooo wooo
don't get me wrong here but i didn't rice it like that
mine is all direct connected to the battery and then switches...

i was saying not to get the 4 port cigy thing thats kinda ricey
ok if you look at your home stereo look where the speakers run into the main box there are places where you push lil tabs up and slide in the wire....
its a box of these
one is power one is ground you cut the ciggy lighter part off
and connect the 2 individual wires in to ports like those on a box^^
that sits INSIDE your dash board
this box has a switch on it so that you can turn the box on and off thus lights on and off
there are two 6 gauge wires coming out of the box that power the box one is for power and one is for ground i by NO MEANS used a 1 to 4 ciggy lighter
