I have the switch for the Eurospec headlamp washers in my coin slot, but no neon or strobes.

There's no safe way to mount a blacklight in the cabin, IMO. To get the blacklight effect on your clothes, interior, etc, it has to be mounted in front of you as well as pointed towards you. This causes a lot of glare at night & is pretty dangerous. You can point it towards your friends in the back seat, but then you don't get to enjoy the glow.
Don't knock neon until you've tried it. My wife has a bunch of blue neon tubes in her Acura, & it's so damn soothing at night! It sounds ghetto, but it's actually pretty cool. |

Ok here we go, hehe...
I bought the switches at Radio Shack for a couple bucks, they have many to select. Make sure you get 12V DC. And make sure it can hold the amps your going to put into it. I hooked it up to 2 Neons that are near the foot rest (i dont know the name of the spot) just above where you put your feet, so that you cant see them. they are activated by sound/vibrations. The blacklight: There is a place to put it! On the sunroof. use some velcro or something and run the wire down to another switch if you want. I haven't put mine on yet, but I am pretty sure my black light will clear the sunroof even if completely open. For your neons I suggest streetglow <a href="http://www.streetglow.com">streetglow.com</A> I have been trying to think up of a way to get a neon on the the inside of the wheel but the only thing is that it spins, I'm trying to find how to make this little invention that i have in mind.... any qs? edit: oh yeah, i just drilled a hole in the coin slots and stuck them in.
