It is safe. I dont think your sub will put out enough SPL to burst the glass tube and the neon bulb.

link if pic doesnt show. http://silverknight.clickhere2.net/test/5.jpg

Those neons should not get cracked by SPL unless you have like 20 10'' subs that handle like 1000 Watts a piece and you are hitting like 170DBs. Then maybe I would be careful. They make neons that light up with the bass hitting, kinda cheezy, i just dont like the whole neon light thing, rather see strobies...

Yes, I dont think you will blow any fuse. I use it to power 3 neon and 1 bulb. Just to be sure you know how the wires work.

The 2 wires are 12v constant when the trunk lid is closed. Once the trunk lip opens, one of them goes to ground. Good luck.
