You need at least 100 tubes, so ur car can look like a space craft going down the freeway.

They do not fit on the Z due to ground clearance issues. They do however fit the CVIC just fine.

OK.. I see noone here is going to give this kid good advice on the underbody neons... so here goes.

Purchase the neon kit, like street glow, or some other reputable neon mfg. park your car in a garage or some other level surface. You'll need:

A Jack
A blanket or sheet (to lay the neon parts down on)
Hand tools
Grease or some lubricant.

Lay out all of the parts from the neon kit on your sheet. Make sure everything is there.
Procede to jack one side of the Z up using the Jack.
once the Z is high enough that you can fit your torso underneath it, locate where you want to mount the neon. Usually its best on the frame rails. Now your ready to mount. grab a neon tub, and cover it with grease. Remove you pants, and insert the tub in your a$$. once the tue is inserted procede to the underside of the car. Once underneath the car place your head near the frame. The next part is tricky, and you may want a buddy to help you. With your head positioned near the frame rail, lower the jack rapidly. **

Enjoy!

Everytime I see someone ask this question I:

1.) Laugh at the responses people give him. They get better everytime.

2.) Try not to add to those wise-a$$, yet hilarious, responses and offer some good advice.

And the advice I give everytime is....forget about neon and get LED. Check out streetglow.com and get their LED underbody kit. It's better than neon in every single way.

Ok, my good deed for the day has been done.

Thank you -- given that you actually want "neons" on your Z -- I take any insult you hurl as a compliment to my own good taste.

BTW, you should learn to use punctuation.

Neon is wonderful, we added it to my friends honda accord while he was on vacation. Hooked it to the brake lights, it took a month and a half for him to notice.

Best laugh for the buck I have ever encountered, I almost pissed myself every time I saw him leave the parking garage at work.
