Before you start soldering the Final two wires on the first and fourth (This last LED's terminal should be NEGATIVE {and the first LED should have the Positive terminal empty}) you have to under that these wire are GOING TO BE LONG.

First determine how long you want to cables to be. (I made most of my LED connecting cables about 3' Feet.)
NOTE: The rest of the instruction will use 3 feet as reference. This measurement can be anything you want.

Measure out 3' feet of RED 26 gage wire (this MUST BE 26 gauge or THICKER).
Solder this wire on the Positive terminal of the First LED that you place.
Measure out 3' feet of BLACK 26 gage wire (this MUST BE 26 gauge or THICKER).how much you need to move a wire from the fourth LED to the First and add 3' Feet.
Solder this BLACK wire on the GROUND terminal of the fourth LED.
