Sorry, I was a bit off with the values,

According to an online resistor calculator the values should be

500ohms for a standard led @12V

150 ohms for standard led @5V

56 ohms for standard blue led @5V

290 ohms for standard blue led @12V

for 12V operation should be 1/4 watt resistors, for 5 volt should be 1/8 watt.

The values I gave earlier were for the wrong voltage, got a bit mixed up reading my table.
