    let me guess, you got the ones that are made out of glass inside a plastic tube, they will break in the first week. and all depends on opinioun, and its a yes uncool from me.

    Shit pic. But by the look of it you can see its visible. I'd tuck it up so that you can't see it and that its out of the way of your legs. In that case then you won't break it. Also looks alot better when you can't see the tube. Doesn't mean that i like them though lol, but its your car.

    undercar kits are for that reason

    how would a set of footwell neons distract another driver??

    not sure how bright normal ones are but i have a set of red cold cathodes in my footwell, cant see them from the outside unless the door is open

    although they havent been turned on since putting them in

    i think you should be castrated for even considering it. neons are up there with lexus lights and chrome wheels for the factor
