Hello TYPOR . Welcome to HT ! For LEDs and turn signals , you will have to use resistors to make the LED bulbs work like normal .

Stop with the resistors. Just get the correct (led ready) flasher unit, you can get one at pretty much any autoparts store. It's a 10 second install instead of hacking up your 20 year old wire harness with resistors.

No. Forget the resistors. You're making your life hard with that method. Go to AutoZone and get the correct flasher. I can't remember the number but you should be able to search it on their website. Replace your current flasher with it. Use the extra time to take to take your girlfriend to dinner and enjoy the headaches you saved from not disturbing your old *** wire harness.

I can't think of a single good reason to use load resistors for this.

edit: the flasher is Novita part number EP34, it's $13 and on the rack next to all of the bulbs.
