Personal Investments • 403b fund option changes with new job

I recently moved to a new job and although I wanted to keep the same 403b fund selections I had before, most of them are not available with the new plan. The selections I had before are:

VANG Inst Index Plus – 41% (ER = 0.02%)
VANG EXT Mkt IDX INS – 9% (ER = 0.05%)
VANG TOT INTL STK IS – 20% (ER = 0.08%)
VANG TOT BD MKT INST – 30% (ER = 0.04%)

I was able to get the VANG Inst Index Plus again, but the other options were a little different. I went with the following selections based on what was available, as these at least look somewhat similar:

VANG Inst Index Plus – 41% (ER = 0.02%)
FID EXTD MKT IDX – 9% (ER = 0.035%)
VANG TOT INTL STK IP - 20% (ER = 0.07%)
VANG TOT BD MK IS PL – 30% (ER = 0.03%)

I wanted to get feedback on the three selections that are new - FID EXTD MKT IDX, VANG TOT ITL STK IP and VANG TOT BD MK IS PL - would those be fairly comparable to the selections I had previously?

If anyone wants me to list all the fund selections that are available at my current job, I can. It's a pretty big list though, so let me know. Any guidance is appreciated!
