Introduction: DIY: Wired LEDs & RGB LEDs
In this tutorial, I will be showing you how to make your own wired LEDs for Arduino using jumper wires.

Step 1: LED Wiring
Cut all the led pins by half and connect the jumper wires according to the matching colors. same goes for regular LEDs.
Step 2: Shrink!
Cover the LEDs using shrink tube and use the heatgun to shrink it. Use a smaller shrink tube for the non-RGB LEDs as it only has two pins.
Step 3: Done
