Arrow EUROS for a 201 / brand, vacuum, harness, etc.

I have finally made the decision to get new euro lights for my 1991 190. As I mentioned before, the OEM headlight doors/surrounds are the only thing that gives away its age.

See the car at: http://mywebpages.comcast.net/brookspw/benz_side.jpg

Anyway -- I need help on these issues:

Vacuum -- does this matter? Just don't hook it up, right?

Harness -- how do I make the change from the current pin socket to the one required by the euros? I do NOT want to rewire, install relays, etc., unless I MUST.

Bulbs -- which bulbs can I use WITHOUT doing the above? Which ones would I need to rewire for?

Brand -- I have found some TYC brand for a good price. Are these ok? I read that they are actually an OEM brand, so I suppose they'd be ok.

Installation tips?

Does anyone have before and after pics of a 190, especially a black one?

Thanks for the help,

brookspw
