Darkfield Condenser

I recently bought an M Series microscope (Model BM-100FL). I want to
get a darkfield condenser to look at live cells, but I'm having
trouble determining which would be the correct one to buy. The
specifications provided in my manual indicate:

Condenser - Abbe N.A. 1.25

I'd like to buy a cheap one off ebay if possible. Can I buy a
condenser rated "D 1.20A" ? Are all condensers the same diameter? How
do I know if it will fit my scope, and lastly, how difficult is it to
install?

I really appreciate any answers you can give me.

Thanks,
- Dan
