HD Blinker Unit

Does anyone know of a heavy duty blinker unit for a 1990 Firebird. I went to a Trans Am style tail light and now the blinkers are kinda messed.
Also, pertaining to this, anyone know where to get a heavy duty relay for the entire tail light system? Brakes, blinkers, and normal tail lights?
Thanks a ton!
Douglas

If the turn signal flash rate is now different & you want to return it to the original flash rate, install an electronic flasher, or a non current sensing type flasher (like is used for the hazzard flashers) in place if the original current sensing turn signal flasher unit.

Okay, cool... now I feel really dumb, but where is the Flasher unit located at? Also, is the "non-sencing" unit a direct replacement for the normal flasher unit?
Thanks,
Douglas

The turn signal flasher is clipped under the driver's side dash & has one purple and one blue wire going to it. The non-current sensing flashing units are a direct replacement, however, they will continue to flash the circuit, even if a bulb burns out.
