are they the prism ones? I fitted some to my mates clio last week.
have you got a kit on your C? I think it'll be hard to hide the tubes at the sides and rear, as there isnt any big gaps.

no i havent got a kit but i had a look 2day and i think i can hide them at the side alright just past the sideskirts is quite a deep groove that i think they will hide in ok and the front i can do its just the back that i dont know where to hide it!!!
do they look good on the clio? r they bright and were they easy to wire up??
cheers

yeh it'll be hard hiding it at the rear, as the spare wheel well gets in the way!
yup they look good on his. yeh quite bright! with the wiring, at first it was a bit fiddly as the instructions are crap, but we got there in the end.

Its not the best solution but my mate was in same boat as you, what he did was put this silver foil type tape on the actual neon where you could see it, this meant that it would hide neon while still reflect light, dont know if this helps, mates looks ok mind.

they sound like the max power ones?
no idea about the rear. you could squash a tube in the gap but then the rear bumper curves round and will block the glow. or mount the neon further back, but you'll prob see the tube from a distance and the glow wont be where you want it.

I'm fitting mine on saturday - got a set of fusions with 54 inch side tubes. Well in with my VX dealer and he's letting me used his ramps to fit 'em. Max Power reviewed the fusions and said they even produced an under-car glow in daylight!
