Help with 03->06 headlight upgrade!!

Ok so I just replaced my taillights with the 06 LED ones. I think they look great on the 03.

Now I am going to start the 06 headlight upgrade, but I am confused about bulbs. Can somebody please help me out??? For the record, my 03 4Runner does NOT have DRLs.

So I know the 06 High beam is 9005 (and I have a replacement pair).
I know the 06 Low beam is H11 (and I have a replacement pair).

I see the Parking light size is 168NA (which I currently do not have a replacement pair). Where is this bulb located???

I also see the Front Turn Signal is 4157NALL (and I currently have a pair of these). I am pretty sure this is the one below the headlights that are right next to the fog lights. Is that correct?

Then there is Front side marker which is 168NA. And I have no clue where these bulbs on the car are located either!

Am I being stupid or something? I thought I had it planned out, but I guess not. I looked at the new 06 housings and they say 9005, h11, 168 and 1156 on them, indicating the bulbs. There are 4 holes. I have all of these bulbs except the 1156. What is the 168? The front turn signal? Sidemarker?

If someone could explain this a bit (and I know this is a lot, im sorry) I would be extremely appreciative. Thank you.

Dont forget about the filler piece underneath the headlight but [MENTION=50591]gaterose[/MENTION] explains what you need the thread below:

The 168NA wedge bulbs + connector were already in my 05 headlight and i just swapped them over.

Thanks. Yea I have the filler pieces. I already have all the parts except some of the proper bulbs. I am just confused about all of the different sockets and which bulbs are required to go in them.

Ok so I just read through this and I think I am an idiot yet again. So I have this wiring harness. http://www.amazon.com/Genuine-Toyota-81125-35440-Headlamp-Cord/dp/B00GD8GMQY

I do NOT have DRLs on my current 2003 4Runner. So do I even need this? Don't I just swap the headlights, high beams, and the marker lights? I am really confused as to where that harness connects to the rest of the car's wiring.

If you are looking at the amazon picture, the two connectors on the right hold an 1156/7 bulb and a 168 bulb. What does the piece on the left do? I know it has to connect somewhere, but I cannot for the life of me figure out where. Any help would awesome.
 
I can't tell you on that one, I wasn't about to spend fifty bucks on two little harnesses. I used some scrounged junk yard bulb sockets, you should be able to find my thread. I didn't have DRL either. My turn signals are in the bumper so I didn't have to worry about that either. It almost looks like the end of that harness plugs into the socket for your current marker light. That would make the two smaller bulbs on at the same time tho. IDK

Do yourself a big favor and put the bulbs/sockets in the headlights before you install them, it's a b to get those small bulbs in after.
