was it someone here who hooked my up with LEDs for my temp gauge?

No problem about the delay, thanks again.
Did you snap any pics of your install to give me any ideas on how you fit it all in there?
Also, is the resistor non directional?? AKA, I can solder it on either way. Also, does it matter what pole of the LED I solder the resistor to?
Thanks again man.

or just hold it again the light and check it inside:
The smaller part inside is the anode+ , the ladger one is the cathode-.

resistor is non directional however the LED is. LED is a diode, so they have polarity, solder the resistor to the positive leg of the LED (the longer one is positive)
