Has anybody fitted a set of neons to a MINI yet:question:

I know that they are not to every ones taste but I think if they are fitted correctly and in the right place under the car then they can look not to bad.

What do you all think:question::question:

Have helped my son fit them to his Corsa and to his mates' Clio and Punta. They seemed to go on easy enough. Side ones were a lot easier than the front and back. Hardest part is getting the wiring into the switch in the dashboard. They do look great, but watch "The Law"....they particularly don't like the blue ones!!

I gotta hold my hand up here, i never ever thought i would like them, but, having attended a wee cruise in Aberdeen some of the cars had them fitted, some were done very neatly and blended in well, others were 8)

Not my cup of tea but if it's what you like, go for it :cool:

<Enters flashback mode to the 1st Heartbeat Run, Scarborough Esplanade and the white BMW325i with the purple neons> :eek::eek: AAaaarrgghh!!! ;):D

Must agree with Alan though, I've seen a couple of cars around Falkirk that actually look pretty cool with the neons. Think the MINI could certainly look the part with a 'tasteful' set of neons.

You go for it Richard :cool:

I was having a look last night under the car the side ones look easy enought to fit out of sight but the rear one, I don't know:( I was thinking of fitting the front one behind the plastic flap that comes from the bumper.

Any pictures would be good
What type of neons did you get Seany:question: and where did you get them from:question:
how did you get the wire in to the cabin and how do you power it:question:


Cheers for any info and pics

I think they look cheap and nasty and should not be allowed anywhere near a quality vehicle like the MINI :eek::D:D:D
