NO i Wont do it myself..i want it done proffesionally because i'm a moron when it come to it..I definatly dont want to see wires or the bulb itself and i know these guys do good work but there is another place i can check localy for pricing..but i don't know their quality compared to these guys

well lets count it out:

an underbodykit = atleast $200
3 interior neons = $50
3 switches +wires = $10
professional install = priceless

i'd say - sounds bout right. save money and have a friend do it who knows stuff bout cars.

not a bad deal

as long they provide warranty on their installation

wow, I should go into business for myself and install that kind of stuff for people around my neighborhood if I could make that kind of money. damn. (PS: If you didn't already buy the underbodies you can get them a lot cheaper, and brand new on ebay)

All I can say is.... DAMN! Personally I think it's a rip-off as it's not hard to find someone capable of doing that, it's very easy and there are many people who have the ability to help you out with it I'm sure. See if someone from the boards here is local... good chance for a mod meet. Besides, when you do something yourself, you get alot of pride.

excelcier your right, and i do wanna do it myself but i doubt i cant but a mod meet sounds good i'm in Ohio and at least an hour away from every one on here also every thing is warrantied by them including future labor if something goes wrong...lastly they normaly charge $384 for just underbodies +install so he is cutting me a deal scince i bought my sytsem from them and have advertiesed thier buisness for them.

I install neons here locally in Orlando, and if you dont know what you're doing it can be a total nightmare. Then again, if you've never done it before then id recommend paying them to do it, and asking if it would be ok to watch. That way if you ever have to do it in the future, you'll probably be able to remember the steps they took to install it. If money is an issue, then definitely wait for a mod meet and buy the neons from me on eBay or my website. :biggrin:

yeah thenhe said....

excelcier your right, and i do wanna do it myself but i doubt i can

maybe you should read all the posts too......hehehehe

i would definately go the mod meet route it is more fun doing it yourself...and the amount of pride from a job well done is priceless....but in all fairness it doesnt sound like that bad a deal for the install provided your geting the tweeters and interior lights as well as install included in the price..i bet if you were to go to any car audio shop that would install just tweeters for you they are gonna charge a hundred or so bucks plus the tweeters...

You're shopping the wrong place... you can get SG Gold for almost half that.

Hey cougar11190. Where abouts in Ohio are you? If you're not that far, you should come up one weekend to Windsor ( across from Detroit ) as we often have mod meets when the weather gets warmer and we could probably all pitch in and install them for you. There's a bunch of NECO guys in my area that love an excuse to get together. Just a suggestion for a road trip, a learning experience and a chance to meet people.
