Default Need help installing JDM

I got my JDM lights today... I havent even attempted to install them yet.. but I noticed a couple things and I've got a lot of questions...

1. What exactly does a coupler do? do i need it? I didn't get one!!!
2. Where's the wire to connect my turn signals?
3. I bought the fender, hood, lights, bumper, radiator support, grill... Is that all i need for this kit?
4. That triangular shaped hole on top of the lights with 3 metal clips on each corner of the triangle... whats it for? does it need to be covered and if so with what?
5. What size are the bulbs that I have to buy???

Thank you all... PLEASE HELP MEE

ummm i would assume the inner one would be the yellow foglight, need ur own wiring for that and a switch inside the car, the the next 2 high and low, and the side 2 would be front the signal from the bumper lenses which has 2 bulbs rah?? figure it out.. not hard

that clip is a tensioning clip for behind one of the light bulb-assemblies, I think.
