Found a "lowglow" powering my rear neon??

[Mark8Murder]

Rear Neon has been out for a few weeks and I had some time to check it out today......

Pulled the rear neon off and found the inverter was missing that is usually attached to the back of the neon? Noticed a box that said "lowglow" bolted inside the access hole of the decklid.

After a few minutes of checking fuses and testing wiring, I found some bare wires that had shorted. Repaired all the wiring, installed new fuses, got the rear lights and brake lights operating again. Still no rear neon

Power to the lowglow inverter, no power coming out, but the lowglow box got hot and the fuse blew again.

My diag. tells me the lowglow inverter box is bad.... Anybody seen or heard of anyone using one of these to power their neon?

no, and it sounds like a fire waiting to happen, just get a ballast from glitch, spend 30 minutes installing it, enjoy years of happy red neon light, all for 90 bucks, priceless!

That's the plan, lowglow was just removed.

Yeah, and the pictures they have on their website look kinda bad. I don't like the way it looks at all.

Me neither. The neon looks WAY better, IMO.

either you website sucks or your actual product sucks, that thing is hideous. No way would I ever consider paying $519.00 for someone to Tiger Stripe my rear neon..... you should be ashamed of yourself.
