hey guys, just wondering how i would go lowering the voltage that goes through my front indicators wire? wanna rewire some of my lights hehe. atm, the power going through my indicator wires is making my new "indicator" (which is of lower voltage) blink too quickly. can anyone help me? like is there a sort of resistor or fuse i can use to slow it down? thanks

*EDIT the wires for the indicator are 21 watts and im connecting that to wedge globes which are 5 watts.

Your indicator flasher is causing the fast blinking. You need bulbs of the same power rating to fix this, otherwise you risk burning out your electrical system...
PS: THAT IS NOT GOOD!!

Find a 21W wedge globe or add 3 more bulbs off that indicator(yes I am kidding)

cool thanks dude, also, im also using the 5W wire to light a 21w bulb (not wedge), does it matter if i keep this bulb? or should i also buy another bulb? thanks
