TL;DR
How to wire correctly?
On older cars made in the 60's I believe flashers work as I drew it out but dropping resistors sold on Amazon are 6 ohm and it states that they go in parallel not to ground seems to me if you was going from high current draw incandescent bulbs to low draw LED one would put one resistor from lamp positive terminal to ground. Why do I think this it is because when the lamp in back does not burn only front one burns but does not flash seems you need more load to make a flasher work. I also think rather than put one resistor on right and another on left just put one resistor from flasher to ground.
