where will you be installing the neons? usually you can run the wires under the carpet or behind the dash. you will probably have to extend the wires.

the best way would be to get your wire extensions and tape them to the end of a straightened coat hanger. cut a small hole in the carpet under the seat and push the hanger foreward until you see it sjhow up near the front by the pedals or something. then run your wires to the location where you are going to tap into power from. then make your connections to the neons.

that should do it.

First, if you want to hide the wires, you don't want to be using the cigarette adapter. Your best bet is to cut the plug off and wire the neons in to a switch and tap into the power for the cigarette lighter. To run the wires from there to under the seats, you'll have to pop off the radio trim, shifter trim, and take off the arm rest and cup holder part of the center console. With that off you should be able to run the wires through the center console and fish the wires under the carpet to under the seats.
