Hi i have three LEDs that id like to make brighter. It's in my car so i was wondering if its possible to cut the wire and attach a resistor of some sort between the wires because i cannot actually open up the component and fiddle around, i only have access to the wire to attach something. Will a resistor work? If so what type?

It will make the Led dimmer.

You have to open up the component and change the Led, but what component are you talking about?
pretty vague....if you have LEDs that you want brighter, you need to replace them with better LEDs and then change the power source to meet the specs of these new LEDs, not really a simple process for not tech savvy person, but none to difficult either...with a few more details (where are these LEDs and how much power are they getting) we could prolly be much more helpful, also the mods will most likely move this to the automotive lighting section...unless of course you need a high powered LED flashlight to complete your automotive work, in which case i would recommend the quark123 or nitecore EX10 they are compact enough for the famous "teeth carry" whilst doing the upside-down under the dash wire splice job:o

I think this needs to move to the Automotive section.
I'm sure other members there will advise you against trying to make these turn signal lights very much brighter, as this could be dangerous and/or illegal.

adding resistors will not make it brighter.
there may be ways to, but you need much more specific information than just "three LEDs".
