DIY: Wired LEDs & RGB LEDs
In this tutorial, I will be showing you how to make your own wired LEDs for Arduino using jumper wires.
Componentes:
5mm RGB LEDs:http://www.amazon.ca/SODIAL-Common-Cathode-Emittin...

M-F jumper wires:http://www.amazon.ca/Accmart-Flexible-Breadboard-A...
Additional components:

LED Wiring
Cut all the led pins by half and connect the jumper wires according to the matching colors. same goes for regular LEDs.
Shrink!
Cover the LEDs using shrink tube and use the heatgun to shrink it. Use a smaller shrink tube for the non-RGB LEDs as it only has two pins.
Done
