u could scotch lock them to your lights so wen u turn your lights on they come on thats what i did.

 

[NB 02 HOT]

ryan any further details about how you did it? want to do this in mine so they only come on with the doors open & possible being able to turn them on/off manually.
Don't really have any electronic knowledge though.

fook me they are cheap! 93pence for 2 12" tubes and an inverter!

i was loookign at gettign a very similar kit on ebay and there were a good few pounds!

dont get them, possibly one of the chavvyest and most stupid looking so called 'mods' that could ever be done.2

 

[Brasseye]

very good price...

very chavy too...

 

[Ryan k]

just put the wires so they are on the head light wireing but i wouldent get them the break easy very easy

 

[Justin]

i had them on my first clio RT

 

[Ryan k]

have you bort them?

On the electric scene, what ever u decide to do FF sake dont use scotch locks, they are the biggest pile of donkey pooh in the world, not very good contacts are made and they are ugly and give problems in later life.
use proper connections, splicing in a wire does not require to cut a cable only a little work with the soldering iron and will give a lot better result

i used to sell them on ebay, and i bought them off ebuyer lol!

I made about 4k selling them and I was young a stupid and pissed it all up the wall!

Now im a bit more sensible and mega skint!

 

[Ryan k]

Only truble with doing that with a soldering iron is that when you come to sell the car it will be a problem

did these in my old clio

did some for the missus' sister recently lol.

very easy to wire to doors, just need to wire the positive to the interior light in the ceiling and the negative to the switch wire at the interior light, hers came with a little box with a switch which is under her seat so she can switch them off.

tbh i think they look good but agree they are deffo chavvy lol

heres how i did it (very basic)

1) the only 2 end wires you need are the yellow wire from the switch and the black one from the black inverter box.

2) now all you have to do is wire the yellow wire from the switch to any 12v power source, and wire the black wire to and suitable ground (e.g a bare metal area) i used the 12v lighter socket from my undercar neons

AND NO YOU DONT NEED RESISTORS

here are some useful pictures


Many Regards

PS and no i dont have anything like this on my clio, i did it to my puma
