Default tailight-show? (not sure what to call it)

alright, well i know im going to get flamed for this...but i think its worth it. i watched a friend of mine's movie called "midnight street racing". there was an integra that had all of the individual bulbs of the tailights going crazy, almost like it was a light show type thing...now i know integras have a lot more lights than civic coupes, but does anyone have any idea how to rig something like this up on a civic?...i know its rice-show-car-status, but i still think it was really cool..anyways thanks in advance for the help.

Your gonna hate it when I tell you this, but its actually skill. You just have to get it all in sequence and start doing it. You obviously have to be sitting still to do this (for reverse lights), but its really cool, and funny when done right.

wow, that actually makes sense...and i cant believe i hadnt thought of that...
and yeah i do hate you..haha...because i would want to do it while driving and not have to work as hard (push a button).haha...well im looking into that strobesnlights place, and maybe if all else fails there is a way to individually hook up wires and a switch to each bulb, and i can just click a bunch of switches on and off?
