Blue window switches

Hey I bought LEDs from eBay ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=26207 ). They are 5mm, 3000-4000mcd, 3.3 volts. I took my window switches out and drmmeled the holes bigger to make the LEDs fit in there, but my question is.... can I just un-solder the leds that are in there now, and just solder the ones I bought in there without resistors? Thanks, PS. I have a 96 max

no, you do not need resistors, just replace leds. Mine are red though, but same characteristics.

would 3mm work fine if not even better than 5mm so that you do not need to dremel the holes bigger?
