I think I found good mounting points on the sides but where are descent mounting points on front and back? and are 48" tubes long enough for the sides? or would 2 32"s on the sides and 32" front and back be better? what have you guy's done?

there 48's on the side are fine, i think 2 32's on the sides would be a lil 2 much......if you look on the bottom of the bumper theres a lil gap it fits nicely inside, isnt visible, and gives a great shine.........on the back the frame is up there and it fits perfectly right there.........

oh yeah.....i DID have it installed on the back of my air dam but i ripped the air dam off in the winter doing donuts in the snow hehehe ...so this is my alternative spot..only downside is that it is visible from the very front at long distances away...mounted on the back of the airdam worked the best because glow still shined out bout the bulb was COMPLETELY hidden :thumbsup:

P.S. YES, those are zip-ties...in the 3 years now I've been installing underbody kits on friends cars and misc. people's cars (over 30 i bet) I've found that zip-ties actually work better than the nylon clips they give you to use with the kit...you can just drill a hole through anything and run a zip tie through it...it's great!..I've had mine zip-tied on for 2 years now and not a single one has ever broken! (in case you're skeptical)

ptrudel is an unknown quantity at this point
Send a message via MSN to ptrudel
the only prob is if you do ANY dirt roads, the back one gets bashed quick

as for zip ties, they don't like rocks either <_<

Can you give me some side mount shots, just to be sure where i'm considering is correct? and did anybody have to extent the tube cables? I got the pattern led neons and the cables will have to be extended!

^^^ no dood, theres a way. I have the streetglow neo-blue LED kit, and they all fit. You must mount them as in the instructions....one toob wire does come in with only a lil slack, but it's all in how u wire them. I'll hafta look under there and give u the routes I took, should help ya.

As for the side toobs, mount them behind the pinch weld seam u see. That will hide the toobs from being seen.

I will take pics of mine....I actually used a piece of aluminum cornering...idk what it's called..it's like 1" by 1" and its an "L" shape..kinda like something you'd put on the corner of a wall to protect it..idk...i'll take pics..but anyway I took a piece of that and drilled it up on the sides and mounted bulbs behind it because even behind that pinch weld..the bulb still stuck out about 1/4 inch...I'll take pics..much easier to see/explain.
