When can I pick up? $35 includes all parts? It just needs to be installed?

By LED tubes, do you mean cold cathode rays?

I don't mean to bring an old thread back to life, but maybe some of this information can be useful. Basically, my friend and I were installing cold cathode tubes in my car instead of LEDs and we are having a problem turning them on. They will turn on when the headlights are off, but as soon as we turn the headlights on, the cathodes turn off. There are only two tubes in the car, so I am not sure if it is drawing too much power. We used a tap-in to tap in to the cigarrete lighter. Also, we hooked it up to just one potentiometer, which has a built-in switch (it is supposed to be a volume control).

Does anyone know what the problem could be?
