Led light bulb question

hi, i just bought the led blinker lights for my headlights. after i put them, every time i use my blinkers they blink really fast. why is that? does anyone know how to set them to blink normal without having to put the original light bulbs back in? is there a resistor that i can add or anything like that? thanks.

Yeah...go to this site: http://autolumination.com/equalizers.htm and about half way down you'll see these things:

They're resistors that allow LED's to blink like normal bulbs.

^it depends on how many turning signal bulbs you replace with leds. You'd need somewhere between 1 and 4.
