IR LED> 12v source

Looking to wire singular ir LED diodes to a 12v source. I know I need resistors, but what kind and how can I successfully wire them to the 12v source without them overheating and/or exploding?

They would also be connected to a toggle switch to be activated if that helps.

Watch your wiring!

Blower fan where it blows the AC out under the passenger dash, BEWARE!! I almost just caught my jeep on fire turning on my AC! Smelled burning plastic coming from the passenger side, low and behold the wiring was trying to fry itself- it’s fixable but I’m so glad I caught it 😬
