So are you saying he is good to go? That he doesn't need anything else to get it all working (ie, no ressitors or soldering)?
Yes, he is "good to go". I will try to give a simple explanation of what he has:
The instructions for the LEDwiz say that you need resistors in series with your LED.....meaning, you cant just hook up a LED right to the LEDwiz, it will "pop" the LED, and the LED will be burnt out. Thats no good.
So, what you need to do is hook up a resistor to every LED that you are hooking up to the LEDwiz. Luckily, you say that your friend bought the "RGB drive" boards from Randy as well.
On the board, there is a RGB LED (RGB stands for Red, Green, Blue) Think of is as three individual LED's housed in that little clear housing. And if you look at the board, you will see that Randy soldered three little resistors right into the board for you!! (What a nice guy) This way, all you have to do is hook up the wires....the resistors are already there, in-line on the circuit board.
In summary, all you got to do to hook up the 4 wires coming from the RGB Drive board. Three wires go to three outputs of the LEDwiz (1 output each for the Red, Green, and Blue LED's), and the 4th wire goes to the common +5VDC source on the LEDwiz board. The resistors are already there, everything takes care if itself. That is pretty much the reason that Randy made this board, and why it was so appealing to me. Not a lot of soldering, and resistors, and heat shrinking, etc... It's plug & play!!
Hope that helps ya,

ps.....I wrote this assuming you had the populated bouard with the LED and resistors already on the board. If you just ordered the bare board, obviously you are gonna have to solder in your own resistor(s) and LED.
