Thanks for posting this rumble feedback xinput link anyway... I've found it very interesting.
My bad, I believe the answer for the LEDs was provider above already. The LEDs are controlled by the driver, and therefore cannot be controlled.

Here is a little more concrete evidence.

Multiple Controllers
The XInput API supports up to four controllers connected at any time. The XInput functions all require a dwUserIndex parameter that is passed in to identify the controller being set or queried. This ID will be in the range of 0-3 and is set automatically by XInput. The number corresponds to the port that the controller is plugged into, and is not modifiable.
Each controller displays which ID it is using by lighting up a quadrant on the "ring of light" in the center of the controller. A dwUserIndex value of 0 corresponds to the top-left quadrant; the numbering proceeds around the ring in clockwise order.
Applications should support multiple controllers.
