ouch painful to read man...

not sure exactly what your problem is because I haven't done this myself yet.


Maybe someone like tony (Araffio) can help you out since he's done it.

Short answer:
The LED's keep on blowing because you either never used a resistor, or the current resistor is of an insufficient value.

Use the resistors that came with the LED's.
