This

If you want an underglow type of effect, I would suggest buying LED strips of the specific color you want. I see too many people that buy remote controlled strips and then just have a rainbow effect on their cars which looks absolutely terrible. Just remember, anything can look tasteful if done correctly. I drive a pink mercedes from the 80s, tons of compliments, just have to do it right.

Go ahead and ignore my fucking reply you goddamn lazy-eyed, weak ass, ricer. You know what, I was trying to be nice, and not tell you to kys, but you completely bypassed my helpful hints. I suggest you kill yourself you ricer cunt, your exhaust will never sound better than a diarrhetic bowel movement.

Looks like shit. Probably even worse without the Instagram Stacey filters. Faggot.

How about you /diy/ and make your own controller? It's not hard to use a mosfet to convert 5V to 12V signal. This way you could not only change the color but have custom animations.

Do this and wire it up with a microphone/amp sensor to change intensity along with the bass

this is a good starting resource. If you're going to do 12V as in a car you're going to need a medium between the 5V microcontroller and the 12V lights. This isn't hard to do though. There are youtube guides on it.
