Remember that noise?

For those that were near my vehicle on the Niagara BBQ Cruise (Silver Bullet etc)...

Remember hearing that POP noise which was kinda loud and sounded like small gunfire?

Well I finally know what the hell that was...

The neon tube on my drivers side (the one that didn't work right off the bat) shattered...

Since we were at a standstill and the tube didn't work to begin with I am guessing that oringally the tube had a leak in it and the hot air caused expansion which finally burst the inside AND the outside tubes in two different places.

OR

Perhaps there was a leak in the tube and the gas filled both inside and outside tubes, then when I clicked on the neons briefly at night it shattered both tubes.

Either way I know nothing hit the tube because...

A) I haven't hit the underside of my car yet
B) The tubes (both) were shattered in two different places

On a good note.. I got the 3/8s of an inch lean to the left in my car fixed.. Duy, go get your bushings looked at.

Regards,
OK
