well i kno how to do it n i kno that you dont need a resistor but the head of mycustomxbox.com stated in his videos that other places that you buy these surface mount LEDs from might need resistors and others are mostly dim

thats cause he wants you to buy his leds. that he got from unique led and is now reselling lol....internet people are funny like that sometimes. I would use an led with a higher mcd, but your FW is correct so they will light. I cant tell for the red ones as your link is bad, but they should be ok.
