If you also put cathodes on the little "bump" in the carpet under the seats then you can light up the whole floor, that is how I did mine, both under the dash and under the seats...and the vents, trunk, under the car.. I'm a cathode *****.

You could do that if you want, I didn't though, I ziptied them to the carpet because if you do the seat then you have to have a bit of extra wires so they don't get pulled when you more the seat up or back. I can take a picture if you want.

Ahh okay

Yeah..a picture would be sweet if you don't mind.
Oh, and I do actually have another set of 12" tubes.

I could splice into the same 12v power source with 3 amp inline fuse right?

Well stock seats don't go back as far as my racing seats do, plus I don't have the seats back that far all the time I just did it so you could see them.
