LEDglow basic wiring
Hey you guys,
I had a quick question about the wiring of an LEDglow interior lighting kit that I recently purchased from ledglow.com. It comes with a control box and 4 neon tubes that plug into the control box. As far as wiring goes, I've never done any but I've read and watched quite a few videos and such online. This is what I was planning on doing: attaching the red + wire to the + terminal on the battery and grounding the black - wire to part of the car under hood without paint. Then run the wire through the firewall and hook it up to the control box. After mounting all of the LED tubes where I want them and plugging them up to the control box, will the LEDs work? Basically I'm just asking if thats a complete circuit and if not how should I wire the control box so it receives power. I'm not wiring the unit to the fuse box because it has a control box so it should be fine.
I really appreciate any help or suggestions,
Thanks

DUDE You have to post Pics of the Job Done....
FYI: They Aren´t Neon Tubes, Just a Tube with a Bunch of LEDs Inside.
About your Question:
Here are the Instructions from LEDglow.com:

Since the Control box have its own ON/OFF Switch its pretty straight forward, Plug the main Power cables to the Battery and Done!

Connecting Directly to a Battery
Needed Parts: 16 or 18 Gauge wire with an in line fuse
The kit can also be wired directly to your vehicle’s 12 volt battery, since it has its own power switch. It is recommended on the positive wire that there be a fuse within 10 inches from the battery in case of a short circuit.
Again, the negative wire can be connected to the negative post of the battery or to any ground source, that is unpainted, greased, rusted, or corroded. Any showing metal on the vehicle will work.
