Mine are like these. You dont see the LED's just the small clear lens, like a mini projector.

is this the correct way to connect the resistor? doesn't seem right to have any connection between positive and negative....this is the diagram shown by the seller. Seems the correct way, would be to wire the resistor in-line with the positive.

Or you could just change out your flasher and you wont need the resistor.
