To answer your question, after reviewing various posts about led cones, there didn't seem to be a real consensus on using 220 or 330 ohm resistors, so I took a chance and went with 220. Thanks for confirmation that switching to 330 would only make them dimmer.
So...I decided to take Shanman's advice and see how easy/hard these Ram Controls volcano buttons were to take apart. Ages ago, I had tried to get some older volcanos to work, which turned out to have blown led's and they were incredibly difficult to try and remove. But as for Ram's buttons, nothing could be simpler. For those that don't know, the cone is easily removed by pressing in on the tab, through the hole on the side of the switch, then pulling up on the cone. The LED (which happens to be red, btw, instead of the older ones I tried, which were opaque white) is soldered to the two terminals on the bottom of the switch. Just push those terminals in and the led pops out from the top. Pictures below.
So now, I guess I can just get some white or red buttonblaster led's from RandyT, solder them to the posts (after removing the existing led's, obviously) and then wire them up, using the resistors that RandyT includes. Surely those buttonblasters will be brighter than the stock red led's. I just wonder which might shine better through the red lense...a white or a red led. Hmmmmmm.
