You need to connect a dummy load (it's just a resistor) across the LED lamp.

You can get them h e r e

Sorry, I don't. Another solution would be to change the flasher. If you are using a thermal flasher change it to an electronic flasher/blinker unit which is commonly available at your local auto parts store.
