Default LED lights

i was wondering if there is any controllers that would be good for setting up a police car lighting system. i bought some blinking LEDs and they blink around 3/4 - 1 per second and its just way to slow for me. so anyone know of any kits? i thouhgt about the barricade light kit but idk if i could run it solo or if it has to be hooked to the car. kinda wanna make mine into a under cover police car

also i got some white LED 3.6v 20mA 1100mcd that im using for headlights, way way brighter than any light kits ive had.

Barry lightkit hooks up to the car, and it starts once you plug it in.

LED's don't use much, not noticeable. Its auto blink once you turn it on. Siren would complete it nicely.

You can run 2 light kits at a time or power it from an external source.

Ebay has them or some Radioshacks if you stumble upon them

if you are running the barricade kit, yyou cant run ANY other lights because they will all just dim out. i turned it into strobing headlights and cant even run another set of regular light kit for just tails..

i meant, as in if you want, combine barricade flashing lights in conjunction to run off the stock Xmods light plug from 1 board. I'm not sure how it would be done.
