Ok, you'll need a ground (86), a 12v fused source (30), switched source (85 - to control the relay), then pin 87 will go to the neons. If you wanted to be able to turn them off completely, put a single throw switch in the swiched source side.

ok could the 12V source be from the light under the dash already? or is there not enough power coming from there to do that? im wanting them to come on and offw/ the rest of the interior lights but have a switch to turn them on too

You may need to either use diodes or do a double relay setup.

I'm not sure how much power neons draw, but I don't think you'd want them drawing power straight from your dome light circuit... There's already a bunch of other stuff on there, and you might blow the fuse...
