Default led resistors

I need to get resistors for my D since i have hyper flash due to one of my turn signals being disconnected. I was wondering if anyone knew which resistors i need to get. I dont know which ratings would work for these lights (resistance wise).

Do you mean you have a bad connector or wire going into the connector?

There is no bulb in the connector now because it doesnt fit in the lights i installed as in theres only room for one turn/driving light. Im looking to install the resistors on the bulbless connectors' wires to avoid the hyper flash.

just install a bulb in the socket and leave it tucked up in there, it wont hurt anything

I didnt want to just tuck the light in because i didnt know if it would show on the outside. Id still like to get the resistors but my last resort would be to just strap the light somewhere so it wont be seen

simply putting a buld in there and tieing it up out of the way is what most members have done in this situation it can very easily be done so that the bulb is hidden from outside the vehicle.

you could get some high temp black spraypaint and paint the bulb so light wouldn't come through
