Yup.
Same answer to both people really, there's two ways to approach the problem. The reason that the indicators flash fast when using LED's anywhere in the circuit, is that LEDs have a lower power usage than bulbs, and the stock relay uses the power draw to calculate it's timings.
Two fixes, either add some resistors to the circuit (but only really an option if you're happy with a soldering iron in your hand), or buy a relay that doesn't use circuit power as a factor in timing.
Something like the
Motrax Flash It will do, and you can get those so they plug straight into the stock wiring. NB, That's no endorsement for either the Flash It relay or the shop I just linked you to - I've no personal experience of either. I just know others have used the Flash It relay in the past & that was the first result in google.
