The chip is programed in a way that we can solder the LED leads right across the chip. The best way to solder them together is to hold one side with nedle nosed plyers and tap the other side with some solder.

The longer LED lead should be soldered to the 'vcc' (power) and 'rst' pins of the chip. This shorts the chip reset and gives it a more secure conection. Make sure to reference the wiring diagram in this step to get the pins correct.
