ya jsut wire them to the speakers, either jsut get 12v led lights or buy teh bulbs at radio c=shack and ger resistors and u can put them all over, i did that in my car and it was pretty cool, jsut put in a switch cuz it can get annoying sometimes

I borrowed a neon strip from my friend. I have it hooked up to one of my subs. The only problem I have is that I have to have my radio turned up a good bit for the neon to be bright.
i have some 12 volt leds. so all i have to do it wire them to the speakers? i tried it without the speaker connected and it didnt work but that may be because the speaker wasnt there im not sure.

Yes. I have the neon hot wire plugged in with the sub hot wire, and the neon ground wire plugged into the sub ground wire.

ya if u got an amp its better so u dont lose so much power, but stock can power the lights
well i have an aftermarket headunit and i plan on getting an amp soon, but leds arent gonna draw very much power.

youd be surprised, considering each speaker has a huge difference in sound by drawing out that 2-5 volts you will ahve to turn ur sound up.
