Question Freight Train Nacelle question...

Hey forum, on looking for advice on the install of the freight train nacelle on my 06 FatBoy. Everything so far is going good as planned but now it is a wiring issue. In the directions they tell you to cut the wires behind the headlamp to remove the rest of the upper tins and removal of the headlight assembly. The stock wiring that was cut has 5 wires: 2 yellow, 2 white and 1 black and the new wiring harness from the new nacelle has 3 wires: 1 yellow, 1 white and 1 black. The directions say to splice the stock wires that were cut to the new nacelle wiring harness which has 3 wires. This is where I am not sure on how to splice them together where there is 2 extra stock wires. Anyone out there who has the freight train nacelle ever have this wiring issue? Any help is much appreciated. Sorry for the long post...

Default nacelle wiring

fitted one myself on 06 fatboy last week. cut existing wiring and jointed in back in. did not use new one for that reason. it did not have the wire for the parking light.
used crimped lugs to join it but connector blocks would have done
