Your cheapest bet would be ebay. Use http://ledcalculator.net/ to calculate what resistor you need using the led specs listed from whereever you are buying them from.

On the 4th gen window switches you don't need resistors, I would assume the 5th gen wouldn't be any different.

Good luck, and don't forget to update us w/ pics!

If you order off ebay for the LEDs, you need 3mm and 5mm sizes, they will usually come with the Resistors that are good for your LEDs. I would look for some with a Flat top as it helps to not create hotspots and tend to give you a wider angle and better output.

Like it was said above you don't need resistors for the door switches but for the climate control you do. I don't have steady hands in fact I'm like Micheal J. Fox on caffeine. So I had a friend soldering the resistor really close to the LED.

Resistor on the positive side btw

Sanding the leds also helps with the hotspot issue

I used 3mm & 5mm Mcd leds, resistors would be 470 ohm 1/8W, check out the link below and see the list of exact leds I used.
