Well I am interested in buying some underglow and I was wondering what the good brands are. I have heard that Streetglow is pretty good as well as Liteglow. So far I have decided to get a LED kit since neon tubes crack easily. one of my friends had neon tubes and they always got f'd up.

ICELED is the best.
200,000,000 colors
$900 price tag.

I have Plasmaglow Fusion 7 color LED.
not bad, but the color don't blend well. u can see spots from the LEDs on the ground.
$140 price tag

Best for the price
Flowlighting Blaze.
great functions, great color blending, brighter then Streetglow and Plasmaglow.
$170 shipped

u can go to www.oznium.com and check the different UB kits there.
i get all my neons and strobes from there.

I have a streetglow gold series underbody kit that was really easy to install. I just connected the bulbs to the sub-frame underneath the car and ran the wires so they wouldnt get tangled in any moving parts. You can get the kit from cardomain.com If pics are needed i will gladly take some of where i attached them to. in addition the streetglow kit is awesome i can see the glow a good 100 yards away.

for neon, i would suggest streetglow.
for LED, i would suggest Blaze.

the LED kits are harder to wire. unlike the SG kits where u just cut and splice, the LED kits have individual wires that need to be run to the "brain" under the hood.
Sucks running a 15' wire from the rear of the car to the front.

all those kits are fine and dandy except they cost WAY to much, get some off ebay, they are only ~$45, they a pretty bright and last a long time, if u want some pics just ask.

I am just curious how they install underneath the car... and how they are protected from rocks... etc..

I would love to see some pics on how its done.. i don't think i'll get one in the next month.. but i'm curious to see how involved they are..

What is the benefits / dissadvantages to LEDs vs Neons?

i'll get u some pics, and the neons are in a strong plastic tubing, I also prefer neons over LED's simply b/c if you buy cheap set of LED's u get spots on the floor, not a constant glow.

I would make sure that you have side skirts or else the lights will more than likely show, and that's nasty.
