Hi,
I purchased a windshield washer neon light and am looking at installing it on my 99 toyota celica. I am new to installing stuff and wondering how(where) i could connect the 12v wire of the neon light to. I have looked thru my car manual and am unable to find the answer. I am looking to connect the wire such that it goes on when the light switch is turned on.
Appreciate the help.
Thanks,
Preetham.

you could hook it to the wires going to the lights therefore when the lights are on they will be on, I still advise not putting these things on tho.

Hook it to the side marker if you realy want it to come on with the lights. This is what i did with a 92 celica, but the cops dont like these lights so id run the lights on their own switch so you could shut them off. You can get power off the fuse block or cigarette lighter and ground anywhere you like.

you got a voltmeter? I dont know the wire colors but you could easily just check for the hot wire. good luck

I recommend not hooking them up in junction with the headlights-so they on when the headlights are on... you will get pulled over and ticketed.... Its goes along with undercar neon. Like on all those products say-- USE FOR OFF ROAD ONLY. They are kewl though... ------------- I need quality equipment, feel free to donate.
