   They usually have 2 different sized legs, one is long which IIRC is positive, and the short one is negative

   That's pretty funny..
   
   The negative side of the LED have a little bit cut away.
   
   Then basically all the vertical mounted ones go negative at the bottom, positive at the top..
   
   Then for the horizontal ones. it goes:
   
   Speedometer: the negative on the right, positive on the left
   
   Revcounter: negative on the left, positive on the right.
   
   
   Clock: left LED: negative to the bottom, positive to the top
   right LED: negative to the top, positive to the bottom.
   
   
   Hope you can make sense of that.
