Indicator problem

[Batman]

Hey guys, Kinda being an idiot here. Been re-doing some wireing and electronics due to the last owner being a botch job and messing it up with house function box's -.-' So finally got the to indicators and replaced them, The old bulbs used to be 12v 23w, Ive replaced them with 12v 10w and due to this the Relay is out and they only stay on. What resistors would be needed to fix this problem. Or would it just be easier to get a relay for my baby that suits 10w's instead of the 23watts?

Many thanks guys,

The stock indicators are 10w each = 20w per side = 1.66Amps. This is what the relay needs to see to make it flash at the right speed (i'm ignoring the 2w for the dash repeater). So, for the Led's to work (assuming they draw a small current), they need a resistor ACCROSS i.e parrallel, one of the LED indicators on each side. To draw 1.66A the resistor needs to be 12/1.66 = 7.3 Ohms (or as close as you can get) rated at 1.66 x 1.66 x 7.3 = 20 watts.

or the easy option if they are LED indicators...
