  the color of the lights will cause distraction to the car driver and other car driver, and if you put it below the car like too fast too furious movies, if the car went over the hump, it might scratch n break and cause broken glasses on the road.

  wow... i was thinking of installing that too but i think those neon lights available in SG market aren't bright enought... i've seen quite a lot of sedans and beng(s) installed it.. well.. i dun think it will hit the road when u go over the hump if u install it at the depth slightly deeper inside the side skirtings. With it's switch located near driver's seat, u can turn it off immediately when u see road block or such.. but it very much depends on yr luck whether the TP attracts to yr beautiful car a not.. if kenna... suay lor. Wat to do? Life sucks BIG TIME and S H I T happens, Always!

  its illegal... any moddifications to your car's existing lights, addition of lights both inside and outside are strictly forbidden. lights and exhausts are the 2 areas TP are particularily strict about, so dun take the risk.

  well... they sell it so u can install it at home, on the ceiling so when u walk into the room at night u can switch on the light and look where u are going and what u are doing...its only illegal to install on cars... not in your home.

  well why would u wanna install neon tubes on your car? to fool the car in front into thinking your red and blue neon tubes are police car flashers? or what? some things are disallowed for a good reason, some are not. Neon tubes are disallowed for good reasons. A side mirror is less likely to break compared to a neon tube on the underside of the car... think b4 u post boy...
