Add wires it's what i do.
or check point 1, 2 and 3, 4 with multimeter.
You can simply remove the existing resistor (unless you were planning to parallel it) and just run some small wires to where you have the larger resistor. I have trim-pots on my Fury's which are connected to the pads via small wire, works fine. It may not look sexy but who cares.
