Undercar LED

Has anyone attempted to install a LED or neon kit on a HHR? I tried for 3 1/2 hours and could not find a passthrough from the engine compartment to the cabin so i could install the controll box.

Where'd you get your LED kit?
I'm having trouble locating anything but short strips. I'd like some that at least run from the front wheels to the rear.
Thanks,

Here's mine that I just finished up the other day... My neighbor who is an electrician/mechanic helped with the install.. he did a small hole in a plastic grommet under the drivers side floor board..

I was thinking about doing this with some cathodes from my computer

they are really cheap now.

I would just worry about them breaking from rocks kicking at them though

I've run this setup thru the car wash and down dirt roads. No problem.
