Wiring resisters into switchback turn signals.

I ordered these switchbacks with the resisters and they will be here today. I have never wired anything in a car before but ive got the basics, so anything on how to do these and where to put them will help.

I did a search and didn't find anything.. but if there is a thread post it! Thanks!

The wires you need to tap into will be on your headlight harness. Each resistor will have two wires, doesn't matter which one goes where, the resistor doesn't care, but one end has to go to a ground (black) wire and the other one has to go to the turn signal wire (blue) on the harness. That's all there is to it. Mount the resistor somewhere that isn't plastic, as the resistors do tend to get pretty warm and you don't wanna run the risk of melting stuff. Mount them to a metal part of the car and you should be fine.
