Alright so i used teh search and looked through all the pages that came up and nothing really helped me. I have Neons in my interior that i want to wire to a switch with an indicator light. I have the neons running off the cigarette lighter and are working fine. I tried wiring them to a switch cause i thought i knew what i was doing but had no luck so i am coming to you guys. I have a toggle switch i want to wire it to. The back has 3 prongs one for power one for acc and one for ground. If someone could give me a hand and tell me how to wire these things up that would be great. Any help is appreciated.

Your neon should have 2 wires, one red, one black. If you cut these then you have 2 wires from the cig lighter plug, and 2 going to your light. Attach both black wires to the ground on the switch. Attach the red wire from the cig plug to the 'power' terminal on your switch, and the red wire from the light to the 'acc'. All done.
