Alrighty guys, I took a pic of the Radio Shack packaging.

The one to get is the one on the RIGHT. The left packaging will 8/10 result in crappy dim or yellow-ish LED.

Also, I talked to my buddy about it, he said he would be open to doing more of these.

Nice work. Welcome to the club. You're not the only one driving for hours looking for the LEDs. We did the same and ordered them online.

Yeah I bought them awhile back when I was going to do them then I somehow lost it and forgot where I got it from. Would you need to buy resistors for the 4 pins led? http://www.radioshack.com/search/ind...pin%20led&sr=1 Are these the 4 pin lights that you guys bought?

Umm, supplies, well, it really depends on how you want to do it. John from NY's way is to cut a slit, and use a wedge and hammer apart the eyebrow compartment. With careful hammering, that's probably the "easiest" way.

And of course, you'll need soldering tool, leds, and patience. It's not terribly difficult, just not something for faint of heart, lol.

gta101: I emailed you.

ah ic. wow wedge and a hammer, man that sounds difficult, it would've been great if there was a picture of you guys taking it apart making it easier. I was thinking of cutting it with a box cutter and somehow it would come out. Scared to break and crack the eyebrows.
