I am putting neons in my trunk (acutally come cold cathodes because i heard they were brighter and now i got em I have to agree) and I want them to come on when I open my trunk... can I simply tap the wire for the light in the trunk that comes on when it is opened??? I think that would be nice and easy considering I hate switches...

Yes people have done that, just make sure everything is the correct voltage, etc etc.

 

[Cougaritus]

What do u mean??? The cold cathodes have inverters on them... they are these...

 

[EricF]

Well then if they are the correct voltage no problem.

I kinda did it a cheap way. I stuck the + and - wires of the neon into the corresponding terminals on the harness that the trunk light plugs into, then just plugged it in so the wires stay put.

I connected the trunk light wires to a relay so i can power more stuff in the trunk and dont have to worry about the burning any thing out
