Finally... I kind of have a plan in my mind...But I got more questions need to ask you all...

1. If I drop the body by change springs, do I need to change other stuff like shocks too??
2. How to put underbody neon??? are they goign to waste alot of betery?


For me what I am going to do is try to get the SE's spoiler, lower body, and hope that some company can make carbon-fiber or silver interior trim

I (and I'm sure lots of people here too) will highly suggest you to change the struts also.

No, but I wouldn't try to leave it on over-night.

I have a streetglow kit that was put on by my local auto stereo dealer. It took him 4 hours and vowed that he would never do a neon kit again. the hardest part is finding the right place to put them so they won't break if you hit a speed bump, etc. especially if you want to lower your car. the rest is pretty simple. you really don't want to run your neon too long with the engine off 'cause it will definitely drain your battery

you can wire the kit to a switch. if you put the switch in the on position, the lights would turn on. on the other hand, if the switch were put into the off position, then the lights would not shine. hope this helps.

go to your local auto accessories store, retail chain, autozone, napa, etc. to find a toggle switch. run your neon to the switch on one side and run wire from the switch to your battery. now u have control of your neon.

try http://www.exoticwooddash.com i saw that they have a lot of interior trim kits for all kinds of cars, including the gen 3 camry and it's only 217.00 USD, not too bad from what i've seen thus far.

Yo CHjvc,

I notice your from Georgia. Me and a couple people from Georgia are getting together sometime in the future, you interested? Kind of like a Camry meet, and we are also thinking about maybe getting a community together, like they have here for Toronto.

Anyway, email me at

totaleclipse02@yahoo.com

Thanks!

Dan
