Default ARB Bumper lights wired but...

So I finally hooked up the indicator lights that came with my arb deluxe bumper. I spliced them into the vertical indicators on the corners. Used a tester to check which wires were + and -. All done and everything lights up. But now, when my lights are on, both turn signals in the dash stay dimly lit and whenever a blinker is on, it blinks slightly faster than normal. Usually this indicates a light is out but none are out? Are all the lights too much draw for the stock wiring? I know when the lights are all the way on then the parking lights are not on so I'm not sure what the deal is.

I attempted to google this but to be honest, I wouldn't even know how to search for it.

Thought I'd add that this only happens while either the parking lights or headlights are on. Blinkers act normal with no lights on whatsoever.
