if you got a fry's nearby try calling them and look for this product

if you dont have a frys nearby just order by phone. it's much better because i dont think theres a minimun order like digikey

Is it really going to matter though? I wanted to get this up and running as quickly as possible tomorrow... radio shack is 10 minutes away, frys is 40. So if I can survive with a plain white LED that would ROCK.

You can't use a 5mm led in there. Just no room. If you opened the lightbox up, you'd understand. There is a reason you can only use 3mm whites.
