What side do i put the resistors on?? + or -?? or doesn't it matter so long as the polarity's are still going the right way?

The resistor is like putting a block in a pipe. No matter where you put it it will still restrict the current flow the same way, its a circuit!!

I take it we are talking LED indicators here?

No there just plan old oval flush mount indis but they only got 12v/5w bulbs

I put 2 resitors on it and its still flashing to fast

I'm gonna see if i can get higher watage bulbs, the SVs standard ones are 21w

Well it was correct in the way you asked the question, diffrence was series or parallel was not mentioned.
