Quad from Advance Yellow and Red

Because of building model electric planes that we primarily fly at night, we have collected quite the assortment of LEDs. Whenever we see something interesting, usual end up getting a few samples to fool with. collection is from the big 4 > Mouser, DigiKey, Allied and Newark as well as Best Hong Kong, Hosfelt and others.
Now that it's time to install indicators and warning LEDs on Europa XS we quickly came to realization that unless a warning indicator is in your direct line of vision, it ain't gonna get your attention too quickly during when operated in direct sunlight. we are going to use some nice black bezeled indicators for non-critical indicators. PepBoys and Advanced Auto are going to be suppliers for wide angled warning LEDs! you see we want several warning LEDs by knees. For three pretty important LEDs, Rotax 914 TCU Red and Orange and Oil pressure going to use a cluster of 4 LEDs from Advanced. These are super bright and the cluster of 4 is mounted on a small circuit board. By drilling a cluster of 4 holes and allowing tips stick out a bit, the tips glow plenty bright, available in Red, and Yellow at least. The neat thing is there is no flange on side of LEDs. For other warning LEDs, PepBoys sell single LEDs that are ultra-bright. Same thing, no flange on sides and long enough to allow tip to stick out of panel, small OD, available in red, Yellow and probably blue at least. Both PepBoys and Advanced sell a neat wide angle LED where the face has a counterbore, may be 5/16" or 3/8" OD (I forget) but very wide angle viewing but only available in Blue, White and Yellow/Orange, no Red.

I got a pack of 3 from PepBoys but these are probably similar, (didn't see these in Advance and PepBoys website is poor at best):
