    just fyi, radioshack does not carry any 50w resistors haha.
    but i have ordered the 6ohm 50w resistors that OP used for the turns and as PNW avant suggested. (found on the bay for only a few bucks) will attempt the poor man's e-codes / side delete unless you turn on the turn signal. does anyone want a diy or is this too simple?

    From the thread:

    Search corner delete, you need to block the parking light contact point on the turn signal bulb socket itself (1 of the 3) and tap a 6 ohm 50 watt resistor between the number 7 and 8 wires. To cover the contact point just put electrical tape over the contact point. The mod is completely reversible this way if you choose to do so. Been running it like this problem free for several years. If you tap the resistor in make sure to put heat shrink on the resistor to keep the insulation from deteriorating over time. I said I would do a DIY write up a couple years ago but never got around to it since it's so simple.
