Things to Consider When Installing Your Neon Car Lights

       If you are about to install your new set of Neon Car Lights you will want

      to gain the best performance from them.

      So first,its best to consider the amount of glow that you want the

      light tubes to emit and to be sure that nothing is going to

      block out the glow of the tubes. Meaning if you are installing under car

      lights, then you'll want the tubes to be mounted "level" with the under

      carriage of the car and not positioned too far up inside the under

      carriage where it will block most of the potential glow from your tubes,

      also not to far down that you will scrape  the tubes off on high ground if

      you have a low car.

      Many of the under car kits have special mounting brackets that allow

      you to "rotate" the tubes so you can direct the glow where you want. For

      example, you may want the glow to be directed straight towards the ground,

      or you may want to direct the light towards the outside of the car, so

      that the glow is actually wider then the car. These neon car lights and

      their brackets have been made this way for that reason, so be sure to

      utilize them for their best performance.

      For the interior car lights, only the limit of your imagination

      can stop you here. Remember, it's always good not to mount these tubes in

      locations where they will not get repeatedly kicked or broken from people

      that get in and out of your car and that they will not interfere with

      you while you're driving. That includes any interior tubes that may be

      mounted at the back of the car that could reflect in the "rear view"

      mirror at night, preventing you from seeing behind you because of the

      glare.

     A good point to remember when installing your neon car lights for

      the best all round performance, is to solder all the wiring joints and seal

     the joints with insulation tape to ensure a good connection and to

      prevent a voltage drop at connection point. If you only "twirl" the wires

      together, your neon lights will end up being too dull or even

      worse, they could cause a fire.

      Speaking of dull, unfortunately, some colors, whether you get LED or neon

      tubes, are naturally already dull due to the lightness of the color. These

      colors include pink, aqua, and amber to name a few, so be sure to keep

      this in mind when choosing your desired color weather it be for the

      interior or exterior car lighting.

      One thing that's often forgotten about is if you've got neon under car lights,

      then over time, the tubes under the vehicle are going to get very dirty due

      to water, dirt, grease, oil and grime that comes off the roads, which in turn,

      blocks the glow of the lights. So  always make it a habit to clean the tubes

      under the car when you wash your vehicle, that way, they will always be

      running at their optimal brightness. .

      Hopefully these few little tips have inspired you to take your time when

      installing your car lighting accessories, or to maybe give your existing

      neon or LED car lights an overhaul to bring them alive again.
