It is not to bad, if you are thinking of buying a normal kit the short tubes are not short enough for the front and rear. The sides pretty much can be fit easily.

might just ruin my technical reputation here but... I have blue neons on my car... I know, I know but in my defense they look sweet and theyare not over powerin think of them as night time check lights for when you hear a noise

Also I do my own installs and can definitly say +1 for the soldier jobs. Only way to do anything right. I use spades on switches though in case i need to disassemble but but i soldier the wire to the connector for insurance. Nothing like knowing it won't shake loose years down the road. I think neons have a bad rep thanks to most of the people that buy them. U have to make sure the light is balanced and even and don't be douche and drive around with them on. Thats why my switch is in the engine bay. This car was conveniently designed to run them tho i swear to god. easily serviceable empty relay boxs under the hood to hide the distribution blocks and switches in and there are grooves under the car that perfectly fit the lights i bought like they were meant to go there and i don't have to be worried about ground clearance. need a weatherproof disconnect for the one up front mounted to the underpanel tho for oil changes, and the one in the rear won't look right until i get exhaust done as the muffler blocks the light so it doesn't spread right.

I installed Streetglow LightStrike 3 million color led under car kit on my rsx. Although its a little pricey. You can choose one single color or mutiple color with patterns, and even light up to the beat of the music in the car. It also comes with a wireless remote/charger. and led's last longer

I want to thank the ones that post that they have them and are not afraid to be judged by other people. It is good to be different.

Nope... dont remember this one.

Maybe I missed it, but why did the seats and console need to come out? Also, like others said... The soldering of wires to a switch isn't something I'd do. Soldering the spade connectors, sure.

They had to come out for a rear camera if I remember correctly. That is how I wanted to wire the switch.
