Did you need to use resistors? What Ohm? What did you solder between the LEDs?
Lol - they just are bigger than usual on my 17" monitor...
I'm running 1280x1024 which higher than most users run. Keep in mind that your pics are in a browser window at 80% width, which then sit inside a box in a thread. So, that size stretches the screen width and forum window even at my resolution. At 1024x768 they would really stretch the browser window. NO big deal really, just something to keep in mind. I try to size mine at 500px width with aspect ratio and it seems to look OK.
Yes, you can see the resistor soldered in there on the sunroof switch. I think the resistors I used are ~500 ohms.. The LEDs haven't exploded yet so they must be right.
I don't see why you have it set to 80% though... Wouldn't 100% make more sense? Then you wouldn't have the problem with my 1000x750 pictures... Thats just MY .02c.
If you want me to resize them to like 800x600 I will... But then it would be hard to see my masterful soldering skillz.

Modified my spoiler control module today so it raises at 65mph, instead of 45mph.

Doesn't that mod require the blinker resevoir to be relocated?? I could be wrong though as I am not a Rado guy.

Yeah, you have to remove it and place it up your ass. j/k lol
No... You open up the control module, which is under the drivers side vent assembly, big black thing... Then theres this little blue resistor at the top, and you just bypass that.
