LED size for blackcat gauges

Hey I was wondering if anyone knows what size black cat uses for their LEDs. I just ordered a gauge face from them but forgot to order the LED kit. Its like 30 bucks and I'm thinking if anyone knows the size of LEDs and how many I could just go buy some at radio shack right? Let me know if this wont work(like if their kit includes more than just LEDS)

theres not really a specific led size for our cars, but buyhids carries the 3mm leds in any color you want. no its just leds and $30 is wayy too much for them. u just gotta be a good, precise sodderer. check out 09xfebalt 's threads and howtos on this.

Hello, I just bought a 10 meter rgb high density led, the leds work great with its included controller which only lets me select solid colors and few flashes. My Question is there a way that i can plug in this Flexible LED Strip Lights to my laptop so that i can control them according to the music begin played? I have seen it done in youtube but i would like to know, what i need, where i can get led strip, and how to do it.
