Exclamation 2009 Iron 883, Removing Stock Bullet lights, replacing with single module

Hey everyone.
I am currently trying to remove my stock turn signal lights on my 2009 iron 883. I want to replace these with a single unit that functions as a taillight/brakelight/and left/right turn signals. This unit has 5 wires:
1) Black- Ground
2) yellow- Running light
3) Blue - Left turn signal
4) red - brake light
5) Orange - right turn signal.

the lights on my bike have 3 wires each. Blue, Purple, and black. I know the black and purple are the ground and turn signal, respectively, and ive labeled my wires to keep which were used for left and right obvious.

My current plan of action is to solder in this order from new module to old wires:
A) single Black ground wire soldered to two black grounds
B) Orange right turn to purple right turn wire
C) Blue left turn to purple left turn
D) Yellow and Red Running/brake light soldered to the blue wire.

I am unsure about step D in my action plan!
In my diagram, the lighting from the rear leads into the taillight converter module which outputs 6 wires, and not all six wires of that color are in the diagram leading to the light bulbs.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!

can you like clearly state which wires I connect to which. I think I see what you’re saying but not really.
