This probably comes across as a chavy thing to do but i quite like the idea of having neons under my footwells in the vrs, but looking under there it doesnt look like its gonna be possible to discreetly place them so the bars themselves cant be seen unless i remove the standard covers. Has anyone tried this and had problems or is it pretty simple to do?

Richard done a thread on it some time ago, albeit not neons,

Seems the pictures have gone but maybe worth contacting him and asking him to re-upload.

I bought a pack of 20 white LEDs of Ebay - but they're not in the car yet

I have done this in my wife's VRs.

I did them when I installed the rear lights in the roof, since I had all the wiring out.

Very easy to do, as you just take a feed from the main interior light.

As for the neons, I used these from e-bay...

2x Purple 30cm Under Car Flexible Strip 15 LED Light on eBay, also Lighting Customisation, Lights Lighting Accessories, Car Tuning Styling, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 18-Nov-08 18:20:25 GMT)

Very thin and easy to install - and as for the colour - my wife likes pink and this was the closest match....
