So im wondering if the front and rear turns signals are on different relays? I have two leds for the front signals only, do i have to splice in resistors?

If there are seperate relays for front and rear anyone know which flasher relay is good to use from "super bright leds"? When i select the kj it shows a bunch of different models with several plug configurations.

Try them first. Usually the resistors are built in to the led signals.

There are not seperate relays for front and rear turn signals....the flashing voltage comes straight out of the Hazard Switch...which carries most of the logic...and goes straight to the relevant side's front, rear, marker and cluster indicators....all one wire spliced off to the various lamps.

You will need resistors for the LEDs or the cluster indicator will flash rapidly as the Hazard Switch will think that one of the bulbs has blown but as stated, maybe the LEDs have the resistors built in already, so give them a try!

Tried them today, they dont have resistance :(

Is it a .1 ohm 3 watt inline resistor that i want?

Ps: ordered some 6 ohm 50watt rated resistors, 25 watt will do apparently.
