Default load resistors

i got the load resistors for my rear turn lamps today. I put the LED bulb in a few days ago and it looks great. the question ki have is what two wires do i conect the load resistors to? i can't figure it out. thanks

Vegas, remember also, if one wire initializes both the parking bulb and the 1st stage of the brake lamp, you will need two resistors in line on that one. I found that during my project.

i don't know if i need two. i installed them on the turn signals only. i found out the turn signal wires are the two wires closest to the outside of the car. I hooked one end of the resistor to that wire and the other wire i grounded to the car. it works!

adda boy - good job! If you get into the brake/tail lamps, you may have to remember the tip.

it was on the tail lamp. it only needed the one resistor per side.
