    Need Help With Underbody Neon Kit

    Ok, so I bolted all the lights on and instead of using the Multi Block outlet they gave to plug all four neons in and then run to the battery, I soldered the 4 negatives to the ground and 4 positives straight to the switch to the battery... bypassing that multi block outlet. Now... I am...

    Running Neons off the battery?

    I actually did this on sunday. I assume your going to buy like the liteglow kit or sumtin equivalent to that. Since it has the seperate tranformer, as mentioned above, you just cut the wires between the cigarette lighter and transformer. You buy the switch, and put it any where on the dash. What...

    18X9 fit on 02+ 4-Door X?

I say go with 20s, on the new xlts, i had the 17' rims, and it would be ridiculous to pay the money just for an extra inch. Spend a few extra bucks and get 20s, you wont be dissapointed. I will...
