Its cool. Its just frustrating sometimes! Hopefully I can get this resolved and get my red ones. They came from Hong Kong, so if and when he ships my red ones out, it will be at least another 10 day wait from when he ships them.

I like how when all mine showed up there was NO way to identify which was what color (except to test each one ). Do you know an identifier/trick to tell the colors apart just by looking at them? BTW, I'm speaking more of the initial dash replacement LEDs that 1st drove the creation of this thread.

Mine were in separate baggies with a W for white, B for blue, a G for green. I used a 12v source with a resistor and it lit up green. What is the identifier/trick to tell the color?

I got a hold of the guy. He said he will get them shipped today or tomorrow. So it will be at least 10 days from now.

Tell me about it man! Tomorrow ill go to radioshack and try to find the resistors I need to hopefully start the white backgroud on the AP2 set, and the blue background on the Silverstone set. I could also get the blue ones in the a/c and mute indicators.

Here is the pic of all the LED's. You can see them marked. W- White, B- Blue, and G- Green. Also if you look at the typing on the package it even says 50 white, 25 blue, and 25 red.

Okay the guy shipped my Red LED's today. Should arrive around the 17th (judging on how long it took the ones I have to get here from him). I also went to radioshack to get some resistors, and just my luck, the exact ones I needed were all gone. They told me they could order them and would take about a week. I said nahh so I just ordered 100 of them off ebay only $5. (at radioshack they are $1.08 with tax for only 5 resistors) Ohh also, anyone need some 3mm green LED's?

haha I think ill just use the green ones to practice the soldering a little bit before using the LED's that really matter. Ill probably get the resistors at the end of next week. Then ill go ahead and get the back lights done and the indicators that im doing either blue or white. Then when I get the red ones there wont be many left to do.
