Default Conversion to Round Headlights

Hello.

I just finished putting together my first Trail Finder 2 kit and it is looking awesome. But, I really like the look of the older round headlights looking front end grill.

So my question is:

What exactly do I need to complete the conversion? I already have the Grill (
TAM9225105) and the headlight lenses (VVV-C0035). What I DO NOT have is the chrome housings for the lenses. Is this the correct part?: (TAM9115336). Also, the side markers that go right beside the headlights ( that come with the square headlight front end are too short for the round headlight front end. Where to I get those lenses? That is all I'm missing. Correct me if I need anything else.

Thanks!

Here's what you need, and I used some sheet styrene and black Tamiya paint to fill in a couple small gaps between grill and body to make it look cleaner.
