Default Where to route the wire.

I'm putting some neon light into my interior, and I want the light to turn on when I open the door, and automatic shut off after I close the door. Just like our factory interior light. Does anyone know where I could route the wire to inorder to do this??

Interior neons not exactly my thing, but...

Wire a relay up to the interior light (don't wire it directly up, use a relay just to have the interior lights signal the neons to turn on, using battery power).

FSM section LT has the wiring diagrams you need.

Come on guys he didn't ask for opinions on Neons, he was looking for an answer. If he wants to rice out a $30,000+ car that's his business

Umm yea wire it to the interior light at the fuse block maybe.

Might be easier to wire it into a Civic though

I'm not putting the big neon tube. Actually what I'm putting is a strip of LED light that will go right next to the drive and passenger seat.

In my Mustang, I found which fuse under the dash was used for the interior lights and I spliced into the wire that went into it and it worked flawlessly.
