Cold Cathodes -----> Car footwells

[MarkyMark]

Basically I want to use "PC" cold cathodes and wire them up in my car into the footwells, and a clear one in the boot. Main reason........they are cheap

Can this be done because when reading about them they come with inverters etc. So what else (if it can be done) do I need to connect them to my car for when the doors/boot lid opens

Oh and if this needs moving then sorry.........I was like ok they are case mods, but its kind of a general question about hardware and a car

So put it where you see fit if need be

that looks really good Though I dont want mine on when driving around though. I simply want the floor to light up when I open my doors and then go off again when they are closed Same for the boot really.

How did you wire them up? Did you need any special equipment at all?

EDIT: Is that a 106 by the way

EDIT 2: <aybenot......stereo is in the wrong place ...........ignore me

all the pics look cool so far imo but I still dont know how to wire the up lol. Is it as simple as chopping off the molex plugs and then just cutting into the circuit (like with fittin a rear break light). IF so, what are the transformer thigns that come with the PC cathodes and will I need to use them in a car?

I'm using quite a few white ones in the 205 so I can see what I'm doing under the bonnet at night.

That looks awesome though they all look good so far imo

Just out of curiosity are they cold cathods or ones designed for cars? Have seen some LED ones now which I thought might be more durable should they be kicked.
