I suspect you'd need to put a resistor in the circuit to add the load to the flasher unit that it is expecting.

Indeed, mmm Martini! Thumbs Up

Your new indi's probably require alot less watts, so they flash faster because so much watts is coming to them.

You can buy new relays to rectify the problem, but if you take the difference in resistance of the indicators, then get a resistor from maplin or somewhere, then just solder it in-line.
