The way you have it wired will never work correctly, you're getting back feed from the second bulb. Which wire is the Right turn sig, Left Turn sig and which is the parking light?
With that info I'll draw you a wire dia. Will the parking light wire light the bulb without the relay?..... here is a 4 relay system but I'm guessing as to what wire does what

Heres the answers to the 2 questions above. The solid green wire is the turn signals, the green/white is the park lights. Yes, the park light wire will light the bulb without the relay.

Here is a revised dia. Keep in mind, the relay will not create enough draw for the flasher to flash, you are going to need some resistors or an electronic flasher..... both can be found at superbrightled.com
