RE: Neon Tube Sourcings?

["Oxandale, Terry" <Toxandale-at-xxxxxxx> (by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-xxxxxxxxxx>)]

Have you considered the short neon tube lights that the kids are putting
under their cars these days. It seems they are  (I'm guessing here)
about 18" long (In my day we spent our money on headers and cams) and I
think they can be ordered from the auto parts houses.
