You probably know what those cheapo LED mounting rings look like (similar to
a hard black plastic grommet type of deal). If the ones for a 3mm LED will
fit next to each other on the Miniwave panel (really tight fit to be sure),
you could probably use heatshrink, glue, or small cable ties to hold them in
place from the back if there isn't enough metal to hold them in.
