Need 3mm 5v LED, where can I get it?

[acidosmosis]

I am looking for some 3mm 5volt LED's. I have searched on a few sites and most are either 5mm or 3volts.

Any idea where I can get them?

have you tried www.digikey.com or www.mouser.com

You also might look at www.nteinc.com

What are you using it for?

I am doing some case modifications, but right now it's classified information ;-). I'll put up some pics as soon as I'm done and let everyone see muahahah lol.

May just have to result to buying a 3mm LED and using a resistor to compensate for it not being 5v since the power it will be getting is 5v I'll need the resistor. Will be so much easier than a 5mm though. I tried that and it didnt work, was too big. I could always sand down the LED to make it smaller, but thats not easy to do since LED's are so small.

I was going to suggest the resistor, thats why I asked the purpose. I didn't want to suggest doing it if it was a replacement part.
