I reasently purchesed the Wireless kit for the fusinon lights, Every thing whent in fine, But the range on the remote does not seem right I can only us it 10ft from the car and even then Its hard to change colors or turn it off. If any one could help me out in getting farther rang it would be greatly apreasheated.[/u]

You can try extending the antenna on the control box... add some wire to it and try putting it behind one of the A pillars instead of tucked away in your dash or something.

What Phil said^. Where is your control box at?
Extending the antenna wire up to the A-Pillar or out into one of the front fenders would prob be your best bet. BTW... nice neon you got there, dood L8R, |

The antenna wire is looped and coiled slightly inside the wireless upgrade box. I pulled mine out of the box and have it taped inside the center console box (where the controller is). This might help the range a little - but extending it, like Phil said might work even better.

DONT EXTEND THE WIRE!!!! i was given this idea for my wireless remote kit and it actually made it worse. i belive the explanation for this is that the transformer thing is meant to have only one length of an antena and by splicing into this you cause it to malfunction. this is just from my personal expeirence so it may not be true but it makes sense to me and we're talking about a whole different kit.
