yeah just make sure that inbetween your battery and your neon you put a killswitch, so you can turn it on and off
you can find a decent one at walmart for about 5 bucks

And thank you mroriginal, so i see you have some on the ceiling as well, and you ran the cords down the a frame? And also does it look out of place when they are off in daylight? and will these cold cathodes hook up to the streetglow music module? www.oznium.com/cathode-kit |

yea they should work just fine, and no the on/off switch on your music interface will serve fine as your kills switch
Basically it should just go as so. Battery -> Fuse (18 Inches from battery MAX) -> Music Interface -> Distribution block -> Neon

btw i almost forgot, if your using those lights, don't extend the white wire, just the red (power) and black (ground) ones to get to the music interface kk

Okay so basically what I'm going to do is run the wires down the a frame to the distribution block (does the come with the lights), then into the music interface goes the red wires and the black go to my chassis? and then I suppose hook the music interface to the battery but have a fuse in between 18 inches or less from battery. Yea I repeated what you said but I don't wanna screw it up.
When I connect everything should I solder them or just use elctric tape? and what are good places to run the wire from the cabin to under the hood (battery).

you've pretty much got it, sounds like it'd be all good, id solder your bare wires if you think they'd come undone and it pretty much ensures a good connection. then just tapes the exposed wires
ummm id love to find a diagram of a basic setup with this but you seem to have it

You dont have to solder BTW. Just use some butt connectors. I sometimes find myself using wire nuts but a lot of people hate them and say they fall off too easily.
