Underglow

I just got a StreetGlow L.E.D multi color underglow kit. It is really cool and the install looks crazy easy. It is just in a series and you connect it to the control box. The mouting is the only difficult part. Does anyone have neons or led's that they have mounted on there supercrew. I know where i am going to mount the front. I am pretty sure where the sides are going to go, but the back i am completly unsure. Does anyone have a way to mount them

Inferno here.... it does 4 million colors and patterns.... damn this things is cool!
I mounted mine using zip ties around them, then zipped them up to the cab supports. I've had mine on for about 4 years now... not one issue.



Maybe I can get you some pics of how I mounted them... I need to update my gallery bad. :o

I tapped into the power that I ran for my Fog lights. The neon controller is inside the dash and it has a wireless controller, the strobe controller is switched and is always "on", it is under the center console in the front so that I can change the speed and pattern of the flashes.

turn your volume down..there isn't any except the wind...

Well I got them installed and love them. Zip ties are my friend. I just took out my spare tire because it would do more harm then good anyways. I will try to get some pica asap. I am crazy tired now. LOL

I have Blue underglow on mine. I didnt want to pay couple of hundred for a set, so I got it from Neon Source Unlimited(http://neonsourceunlimited.com/home.php) got it for $55, and works great.

PA doesnt allow Underglow on, unless if the car is in park.

But I put it on just to be different






I had to buy TWO 15inch Blue sticks for the rear, because my rear 48in Neon stick couldnt fit because of my dual exhaust and trailer hitch bracket.

~I would have pics of that, but havent taken any yet~


Also, since I have a bed cover, I put yellow neon in it, so I could see in there......after putting yellow in it, should of gotten White, but o well, yellow glow still does the job.

I will try to get a better pic with a actual camera tomorrow. And i checked with the local cops, state troopers, and sheriffs, and they all said that i can roll with it on on the streets. As long as it doesnt flash and they cant see the bulbs. Color doesnt matter. This was definatly a nice addition to the truck.

It kinda looks cool...

But not my style.

Kudos to those who took the time to wire and have fun.

I was skeptical about it at first. And was unsure if I was going to keep it. Bit once I got it working and after the multiple compliments I am keeping it. LOL. It turned out way better then I thought it would.
