Anyone have any experience with electroluminescent cable?
I'm trying to think of a way of lighting up my bike without looking too tacky.
I'd like to mount some light strips or cables to accent some of the frame lines of the bike. Maybe illuminate the engine and tailpipe.
And I'm pretty sure you can wire the power supply to the battery. Maybe have the light strips turn on with the high beams?

I'm not sure if all those lights are entirely legal, but they might be entirely awesome. Although, I dont know; it might come out looking like the light cycle from TRON.

Anyway, any suggestions?

Btw, here's a FAQ about EL cables:

Check out Kuryakyn, they've got both spider lights and led strips that work real well.
