How do I fix hyper flash turn signals??

Hello, I have a 2006 Honda Civic EX Sedan. Recently I upgraded the headlights, taillights, and turn signals (both front and back) to LED. The problem is the turn signals now hyper flash (blink probably 2-3 more times per flash compared to a normal flash). I really dislike this and would like to fix it, and still keep the LED bulbs in there. I've done quite a bit of research on YouTube and all I can find is to buy resistors and install those. Is this the best method? What are some of your suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

Resistors are probably the easiest way.

I thought so. So does each one need its own resistor? Where is the best place to buy them and are there certain ones I need or will anything work?

You might be able to put in a different flasher relay that can handle the LEDs

I heard about that but I think Civics blinkers are MICU controlled... so the only thing I can think of is resistors but I don't know what to buy....
