5A... 10A... just keep trying. Theirs a way you can work it out but I forget. JUst make sure your wiring is spot on, if you run big fuse rating with bad wiring you could end up frying your neons!

Took me 5 hours to fit and had no problems with it at all!
In terms of fuse - My transformer reads 8amp (max).

all depends on how many tubes your running. and how much power they take. how can you calculate what current its gonna take from knowing just two voltages

Mine are on a Corsa C. I haven't got any pics of how I've I fitted the tubes but the link below shows them on and working.

A helpful tip for putting the side neons on a Corsa C (if they're long enough)... You'll have a plastic strip on each side going across the car situated towards the rear. I cut a circular hole in each to feed the neon through. It helps wonders as its a ready made support to hold the neon.
