I still have no idea of what you would wire it into (maybe the amps remote) so when the amp turns on (however you have it wired) the LCDs will ight up.

u can wire it to anything... but if you wire it to your taillights, you have to have the lights on to see them or be braking (depends on what you mean by tail lights) I would use the amp remote really. The amp turns on when your car turns on yes? Thats what I would do personally.

amp*

the remote lead....it varies by model amp. but its not the ground, the power lead, the RCA cables, or speaker wires. hope that narrows it down for u.

Am not too sure you want to do that!

Just wire it to the Amp... I've got a set of neons wire to the amp, simplest way

 

[Santa]

ok sounds good thanks

you might want to throw a switch in there for good measure, in the line from the amp to the lights so you can turn it on/off when you want

 

[Santa]

yeah i want to do that. Can somone give me a little walk through of how to do this with a switch>?

 

[T!mmy]

Honestly man not trying to be rude...but if you cant figure out how to wire a switch in...I wouldn't try all this other stuff...

switches are easy dude.. go to radio shack buy one and ask them.. theres only 1 IN and 1 out on a switch!

EDIT: And what timmy said.....

the switch i baught has an in and an out and a 3rd hole. Also just because i dont know how to do it doesnt mean i cant. Hit me with a walk through and i will be able to do it.

Like Nike said, JUST DO IT. You really cant screw anything up man........if it doesnt work, RE-WIRE.
