I'm not a fan of Neons on a F-Body at all (or any car). I'd say get rid of them personally. Especially if they're messing with your elec. system.

Yeah, if they mess too much with your electrical system then get rid of them. But other than that it's really up to you, it's your car.

yeah if your blowing fuses than get rid of them. Last thing you need is a fire from your damn neons.

I have internal neons for the interior, but exterior neons to me look too 'fast and the furious'. Personally i'd ditch them. Especially if they are screwing with your electrical system.

I got them, because like you I kind of like them. However, I can't really tell you the last time I had them on. I guess I kind of forgot they are even down there. I think that if, they are giving you problems just get rid off them. Not worth the trouble trying to fix them.

Yeah, its really up to you, but, you might want to check the wires.. When they placed the wires between all the lights, there might be a piece that is not properly insulated and actually arching against the metal somewhere. If they get any kind of arch, they will blow fuses... As far as keeping them on the car, it is up to you.
