Ok, ok.... I confess. I was actually much older at the time and the lights came
from a Bell Labs stock room - they were either neon or LED's, I wouldn't really
know the difference. One lead went under the hood and wrapped around a spark
plug wire, the other to ground I guess. The lights were mounted behind a piece
of plexiglass in a circle with a small hole for each one to shine through and
the plexiglass was mounted on the center of the transmission hump in my '66
Mustang 289. I told myself, and others, I was having ignition problems and
this was just 'tll I figured out was going on. Sorry, I know better now.
