I have a wonderfull 4.5, spiders, sports ex, etc etc. Rear lights need changing, still on orginal fiesta units , one of which is full of cxondensation. Help, who has had success with newrear lights. Also,LW front light conversions, how much, any recommendations?

Cheers

Fitted the rears myself, takes about an afternoon for an amateur. Just need to trace the wires to lights and swap them over and take a feed of the common live/earth (can't remember which) to each individual new light.
Fronts got done at tvrbodyshop. My price is probably irrelevant as I had a complete respray plus exterior cosmetics replaced. Pic in profile. General price for lights plus front end respray is on their website I think.

cheers, looks great, similar colour to mine, (tahiti blue/magnolia). How much is the front conversion? or should i wait until it needs a respray at the front? I have also been told there are lots of rear light options (heard words like 'afterburner'?) help!!

I tell you what, I listeed to Satman so many times on this thread, you don't need him I'll be satman

Satman

Yeah, go for it. Zertec afterburners, blended in front pods, elmeworks bodyshop, and oh, Rosso red is the best colour for a Cerb.

.I think thats got it covered.

He's on a train at the moment, going home from Joolz. Should be with us soon.

Found some details for the rear afterburners...but ignore the jealous remarks regarding my boot badge from the guy with the "girly pink" Cerbera

Glad to see you got back home safely Paddy. Enjoyed the chat/drink. Pity it wasn't friday night as originally planned..., I could have had something a bit stronger.

Had a look on the BT&P photos on Luca's site. Spotted one of you and your good lady. Very nice.(Not you ). Nice to put some faces to names.

cheers
