OK so the car runs at 14.4 volts while running... an LED runs on around 3-3.5 generally.

I want to use those in the car, so what size resistor should I use? I remember using a 680 ohm to use the old school 5mm LEDs in the car, but I want the voltage to be more exact in this case, say 3.8 net.
The formula for this would be nice if any of you know.
Thanks
