Stop press....
breadboard is a P.O.S. and I can't solder for sh1t either. A proper circuit board is needed and 5 hours of head scratching later we had a professional(?) looking 2-layer LED and resistor layout and the first tracks partially laid in.
in-line resistors make the board too crowded so I'll have to change them to surface mount. Onwards and upwards

It's an engine Jim.....but not as we know it
I suggest that you use 0805 surface mount on the rear of the board, and through hole leds mounted from the front. That way (assuming you can track it) you'll only need one side with tracks on it.
You'll need a fine tipped soldering iron, tweezers and a microscope to solder it though, and if you can't solder for sh1t you might want to find a mate to do it!! Plumbers solder and a blowlamp just don't cut it.

Eeeehup!
after breadboards, LEDs, circuit boards and cider loving leccy geeks I found these beauties lurking in a Harley Davidson accessory site. Outer ring amber, inner rings 2 mode side and stop. Unfortunately they wouldn't fit the original glass lenses so I turned up some acrylic replacements. Couldn't be asked to make them optically perfect by polishing for hours though.
