your best bet would probably be to look into fords sync system. ive worked on some fords and when we test the radio, the lights kind of flash in sync with the music and i assume its part of the whole multimedia sync system. granted those are dots, not rings. the only other option is to find a soul and jack their system lol

you can find some very cheap LED and neon stuff for cars or computers (they both run off 12 volts) that are sound sensitive. i garauntee 20 bucks on ebay would get you more than enough lights to make your own mobile rave.

if you are looking for something cheap, have you ever seen those light up teeshirts? they are sound sensitive and im sure you could find some way to wire those up 2 a power source and use those !

heres a vid of them if youve never seen them

All it is, is a neon light with a vibration sensor mounted to it. Go to wal-mart or autozone and by an interior neon light that is sound sensitive, and a neon string light. then you take the neon light apart and wire the sound sensor to the neon string light and install it where you want. The also make 6" or 8" neon rings for the cheap ass subwoofers you can get at autozone for $20

Pep Boys and some car audio sells the speakers with the neon lights already attached and wired for plug and play. Check out your local car audio stores. Those type of speakers are usually cheaper to get.
