Default Neon Underbody Lights

I'm going to try and put some neon underbody lights on my car this weekend, and I was wondering if anyone had any tips on where to mount them. Let me know.

Okay, I am needing a place to pass the wires for the switch for the lights through to the engine compartment. The yellow wire at the top is the ahooga horn, it is running through the same place as the hood release cable. Right below that I saw this area where what looks like a piece of cardboard or plastic is bolted over another hole. This area doesn't appear to be used for anything on the other side and I was wondering if I could drill through that to run wires through. The pic is of the area underneath the dash on the driver's side. Need to know what this hole is for before Saturday.

If you're running wires through to the interior, I know of one place if you run through a tiny bit of the engine compartment. My air suspension wires run through a small hole in the firewall right near the fuse panel, a little away and behind all that, obviously. I can't really get a pic of it...really awkward spot for a camera.

I put Street Glow lights on my 2002. 54" on the sides and 30" front & rear. I removed the spare tire and holder to mount the rear. In front under the radiator there is a brace going across with 3 holes in it (just right for 3 wire-ties to hold front light. I put side lights on inside of the main frame chanel. Drilled small starter holes for the mounting screws. Did all the installation using the jack that came with the car. Put it just in front of rear tire and laid on my back. I ran the switch wire through the same place that your yellow wire is going through. Mounted the xformer on face of square computer module just above where the wire goes through. Mounted switch just under the knee panel under steering wheel. Bought a different switch at ACE hdware with a mount.

Okay, I have the lights on, and they look great. I ended up running all the ways through the same hole as the ahooga horn. The pictures explain all the rest.
