[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 7012117, member: 576029"] the amp turn-on lead cannot power neons directly or you will damage the HU. Assuming a standard 4 or 5 pin Bosch relay (available at any autoparts section/store) 30 to 12v constant with higher current then the lights - with a in-line fuse sized per neon recommendations and wire. 85 to your amp turn-on wire 86 to gnd 87 to the lights... and other amp remote turn-on inputs if you want to ensure you don't overload the HU remote output. 87a no connection compared to the diagram below, bcae1 swaps 87 and 30 and also swaps 86 and 85 which is ok to do. the coil doesn't have polarity and the contacts matter when you're using a nomally closed connection. [URL="http://www.bcae1.com/relays.htm"]Relays[/URL] personally, i prefer pin 30 to my voltage source since i use N.O. and N.C. from time to time. as a general rule, pin #30 is source power and 87/87a are to your loads. here is a diagram that should add confusion since it is opposite what i suggest above, but may help you visualize these connections. this would work in your application as well.
