Is there anywhere where I can run the wire inside the car so that i can wire it up to a switch. I already have the switch and everything mounted. I just need to figure out a way of getting the wire from underneath the car to the inside.

run the wires underyour car, up the firewall and through a rubber gromit , they should go straight into cab

I got the switch and everything wired in this morning. Thanks for the help. that's what I did. I ran it down the driver's side fender well and into the cab down by the pedals right underneath where the hood release cable runs. It looks great!

It is a bitch to get to but...

On the passenger side, behind the glove box, against the firewall to the far right, s a rubber grommet about 2" in diameter. it exits behind the Battery.

Poke a hole though it with an Awl and run your wire through there...

and Yes... it would be easier to access if you take the battery out, but I did manage to run one though there without removing the battery, but it too someone to help by feeding the wire from the inside, while I watched for it on the other side.

There is actually a nice size hole already in the firewall... driver side... kind of right below the brake resv. no drilling required...

Would you happen to have a pic of the undercarriage so that I can see where you mounted them?

Sorry.. the neons (actually LEDs) was like my very FIRST mod... this was before I started documenting every thing so I don't have any install pics...

Oh okay, it's cool. Where did you mount the side ones, up where the undercarriage first has the indent towards the floor board?

Okay, the one I really need to know about is the rear one since all that is back there is the fuel tank

Yeah, I don't even know why I said that. It's the trunk, where it goes down for the spare tire. I might just mount it on the bottom of the bumper
