Yep those should be good, you might need a bit of hot glue to hold it into the plastic housing but other than that it should be fairly straight forward. 

Hello,

 

Will this work to replace the front LED on my Fractal Design Define R4? http://www.amazon.com/StarSide-Lights--wired-volt-leds-/dp/B01AFJZFQY/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1459128690&sr=8-5&keywords=3+mm+red+led+lights

 

Thanks,

 

-Chuck

Those are wired up for 12V operation with a resistor so it wouldn't work where for a front panel power LED they are directly current limited and powered by the pins so you would just need a regular 3mm LED and to cut out and solder on the new one.
