so if the tube was hidden (behind the bumpers / sideskirts etc) but the glow was visable on the floor, then the neons would be legal?

There isnt a law against them (ie: no law stating that you cant use exterior neons/leds), as such, but police will (sometimes) pull you over and ask you to switch them off and give you a warning etc etc.
However, if there showing then its illegal (i believe).
