Default HELP with retro fitting JDM headlights

So I decided to buy JDM headlights and retro fit them . But I am in a world of pain . The guy I bought of gave me some custom looms from America but they have bits wrong with them (ballast connection) but the main problem is the indicator bulb plug/holder from the euro headlights don't fit the JDM ones .
Can you good people who have experience of retrofitting these headlights help me or tell me where I can get the parts to fix this .

I wanted to see if the OP went with my (your!) recommendation for the Lightwerkz looms before committing to buying, but it seems he's probably out enjoying driving in the dark and being able to see where he's going!

You've still not fitted them?

You can:

A: Get a LW loom

B: Buy a generic loom such as
Amazon Amazon

C: Build a loom from scratch

D: Fumble about in the dark
