You want to hook it up so they blink or just so they are on when you turn the car on?

Just buy a regular 2 position switch. Hook up all the groounds off the lights to ground, hook up a fused 12 volt line to the one side of the switch and all the positives off the lights to the other side of the switch. Flick switch and watchem glow.

if youve got money to spare, there are a few different companies that make interface controllers for neons/strobes etc. i know streetglow has a neon interface that would probably do what you are looking to do. optx might too. if you do a bit of research, www.slickcar.com, jcwhitney.com, those 2 carry a lot of stuff. Ive done a few different things with complex switching and cool stuff like that, if you like, email me with what you are trying to get done, I can probably get you through it.

I wonder if he is going to ask how to hook up the neons 1 more time, in addition to the other 3 times. Here, here, and here. Until you understand how 12V works, maybe you should pay someone to install these for you.
