Find a VHS cassette that you don't mind destroying it.
First take apart cassette with a screwdriver or you might have to break it open with a hammer or something if there are security screws holding the cassette case together.
One you got the case open, take out a spool that has the less or no tape on it, if there is some tape on the spool, take it off and do what ever you like to do with the tape.
Now you need to break the clear part of the spool off the white part of the spool and be careful not to damage the white part of the spool.
And you should end up with the white part of the spool, that will be used to support the LED's.
