zipties...... i will take some pics of the way i have my lights installed tomorrow if you would like... also you WILL NOT be able to hide the bulbs........ while now the safest.. i drilled a couple holes (awa from lines) thru the flange that runs along the bottom of the car, then i ziptied thru that, had a friend help me run wires and such ziptied them to various lones/points... its quite easy actully just gotta be able to get under the car....and not be afraid to ziptie to lines and such

maybe use something mirrored to reflect more light down, unless the kit comes with something. That way you might be able to get them out of sight.

i had some but in got rid of them cuz i could see the tubes where are yo plannig on mounting them? sides i thing that there is no really good place to mount them so you cant see the tubes? you know where the side skirts are? well on the drivers side its a go till you hit the jack spot as for the passenger side same thing but fuel lines and brake lines are in the way i thing this guy needs some reassurance?

yes i have the skirt, mounting them to where u can see them is COMPLETELY out of the question. if i have to i can mount them where they arent as bright. but i want this to be as bright and clean looking as possible. i spent 300 bucks on this kit and i really want to get my money worth. thanx for ne assistance

jach.. the concept of the LED kit is they are directed light once they are on, they dont look like reg neon tubes if you point them down, they look REALLY dumb... you need them pointing out to the sides, did you see the pics of how well they glow off to the side on my car? also since the car is a unibody, there is no place to mouth them further in, you will either run into exhaust or tube length issues, im actully about to go back to regular neons, and there ARE ways to hide the tubes w/ them, you just need to be CREATIVE
