Just wondering if anyone would know what the correct setup would be for 4 interior neons inside a 95 subaru liberty/legacy ie parallel or series. If anyone has any diagrams or any information would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Matters not really how you want to wire it in series, or in parallel, that comes down to preference.
I will say that there is a benefit in wiring them in parallel. That being, if one should faulter, the remaining units will continue to operate.
Wired in series, it only takes one to break the circuit, which would affect the rest from operating.
Knowledge is power. But only if you apply that knowledge in a positive way, which promotes positive results in others.

If these are stand alone neons with built in transformers, they HAVE to be wired in parallel. (All positives to positive, all negatives to negative) If they are a kit that all go to a single transformer, they sometimes are supposed to be wired in series.

Also remember that the load in a series circuit adds up, so the current draw will be more. In a parallel arrangement the equivalent resistance is lower.
