...You wire them in series... like... in series...running one into the other.

Desolder one leg of the diode from the PCB, attach another Diode facing the same direction and then solder the spare lead back into the PCB.

Not to sound stupid....but I will have the two legs(one from each) soldered together that will not be in the pcb correct? I think I understand what you were saying. Thanks again.

You are correct, it'll be simple enough when you get to it.
