Default Angel Eye and Grill Neon Install -56K WARNING

Finished up this weekend, took some pics last night. I will take some more with the camera on a tripod to get rid of the fuzzies...

Everything off:


Angel Eyes Only:


Neon only (BLURY)


Neon and Angel Eyes:


I am going to get two more 15" white neon tubes to put behind the lower grill section next.

I used dental floss to wire everything.

kidding..

The driving portion of the Angel eyes I wired to the factory fog-light switch. For the Angel Eye portion I used a seperate switch, as well as the two neons. I mounted the switches in the compartment that would house the HUD controls if equiped. Looks good, cut some lexan to mount the switches on, I am going to use black photo paper to mount behind the lexan and print the words "Eyes" and "Neons" so they appear above the switches, then mount an LED/Lamp behind the fabricated panel so when the dash comes on (when the lights are on) the words are lit-up...

I ran the wire up to the dash, then ran power from the rear fuse box (low amperage).

neat huh?

I mounting the driving lights where the factory fogs were. The neons I mounted behind and below the center grill. I can take a pic of them if you are really interested. Since I was'nt feeling that great on saturday I opted out of doing my standard photo walk through...
