6 ohm 50 watt load resistors

I'm installing tail lights on the back of my rig and have come to the conclusion that I need a couple 6 ohm 50 watt load resistors to get everything working correctly. These are the same resistors you may need when installing LED tail lights. They emulate a bulb and keep the blinkers working correctly. Unfortunately I cannot find these resistors locally, I've tried checker, car quest and radio shack, anybody know of a store in Denver that might carry these? I know what you are thinking, why does he need these? I'm installing a single light on each side and need to combine the brake and blinker function. To do this I'm wiring in a trailer tail light converter. However, the tail light converter will not work unless the original light bulbs are present.

Thanks
 
Never mind. I got 4 trailer marker lights, wired them in like the original tail lights/blinkers and wallah everything is working. Now I just have to figure out where to mount the marker lights.
 
Thanks, it's always good to know where the big suppliers are located. You never know when you'll need some odd ball electronic component.
