Some Soldering.

Right, onto the fun stuff! Here I am two thirds of the way through the soldering. Yes I know that it's a horrible job but my soldering iron sucks, and I haven't done this in a while, so go easy on me, eh? As you can see the 330R resistors are in parallel with the LED. I wish I could tell you what the LED is rated as, but I have no idea, I came across a few of these in a bag while I was hunting for something in the attic!



After poking the wires from the LED into the right holes and plugging the whole thing into my PC to test that it all still worked I soldered them in place

  

Much neater soldering, I apologise for the picture quality, it was getting dark at this point and I have no desk lamp.
