Euro headlight

I just bought a 1989 560SL. I am putting in Euro headlight. I know this has been discussed in this forum many times, but can someone who is an expert on this help me out and make my life easier by sending me (flaw@telus.net) the wiring changes needed. I understand that I have to convert from a 4 hole adaptor to a 6 hole adaptor, but I would appreciate if someone in the know can e mail me the pin location and placement in the new 6 hole adaptor. Also, i would like to know the pin placement needed so that I can achieve a "real" Euro look by having the side markers functioning as a turn indicator only. When I switch on the parking lights position on my light switch, I would like ONLY the city lights to be on.

Thanks in advance.

Try to determine where the US modiification occured. That can go a long way in figuring out how to rewire the light plug >female< properly. The pin out will take a little time. Good luck.
BTW: Where is your info? A built for US in 89 is considerably different than the EURO/ROTW version.
