That seems pretty easy the only hard part would be coming up with a disired color, cause they all look so good.

I got mine from eled, because in a lot of the pics I saw the digikey leds weren't as bright. They are a little more expensive on eleds site, but I think it's worth the extra couple of bucks. The best thing to do is try to combine orders, cause the "handling" fee is like $8.00.

Blue looks the best and is the most visible. I did mine and another guys in blue. Looks awesome. You also don't want it too bright due to the glare at night. I got mine from Digikey.
