actually the front & rear turn signals one each side are in series. you either need them in the front or the back, not both places. just to clarify you do need them on the left and right side, but only in the front or the back.

btw may i ask why you installed resistors in the front? it would have been a lot easier to do them in the rear.

i installed the switchback bulbs, so since everythin was apart, we installed it in the front quick access

you can remove the 6 ohm resistors and replace them with 3 ohm resistors if you are doing all 4 turn signals. They will then blink at normal speed.
