it will give a better result. if the LEDs are becoming hot then it means they are over voltaged... so u need to add proper resisters according to the LED and its color.

Alse the Rs 2 LEDs u got are the simple ones.. get the extra bright ones.. they will be costlier at around 10rs each. also big 10mm leds are also available..
I connected the L.E.D's to yellow and red wires of molex.
