I just attached a small messenger line to the old halyard, pulled in through the mast, attached messenger line to new halyard, and pulled the new halyard through. It took about 3 minutes.

Last time I shopped for line at WM its seemed that apart from high tech lines the only choice was white NE Ropes Staset. I'd like a choice of colors!
