Euro light brands

I have decided to go ahead and purchase some for my 190e. I have noticed a few different brands such as TYC, Hella and Bosch. Are there any noticable differences in these 3 brands?
Also, how much better lighting can I expect with these headlights?

I am working on buying some off a parts car in the U.K. but if anyone has any they are trying to sell let me know.

The Bosch ones are completely chromed out.... they look very beautiful!

I have a 300E and next month, I will be ordering the ones from Katmac.com

They have the TYC ones, not as high quality, but they have a complete kit, with bulbs, euro sockets, and clear corners for like $260..

I can't even find the Bosch or Hella ones anywhere, they probally cost way too much for me anyways......

Bosch was the OEM supplier. If you run a search on this forum, you'll find plenty of reading material on selecting and installing euro headlights. Oh, there's lots of stuff about different oils, air filters, instrument clusters and vaccum systems too!
