Has anyone upgraded their Chim lights to those found on the later Cerbera? I'd quite like to upgrade my mine. Any ideas of the cost, and do you think it is worth it?

Have a look at the TVR bodyshop website... not sure of the URL - they have a load of pictures of various light conversions and costs.

For the front your looking at about £1400
www.tvrbodyshop.co.uk/
For the rear the options are endless, from the tastefull TVR spec round lights to the 'marginly less tastefull' Lexus stylee bling bling shiney chrome rear units either way it should be possible for under £200
As for 'is it worth it' only you can answer that, it adds nothing to the value of your car and may put some punters off, either because they don't like it, or because they think you had it done due to a front and rear shunt

OTOH mine did have a front and erar shunt and the new lights were just as cheap as replacements

They're also a lot better at lighting up the road, which is why I bought them

If anyone can let me know where I can get my rear light converted done for £200 then please dont hesitate to email me - seems that the TVR bodyshop want 395 plus vat - seems a bit dear - can you buy the insert separately from Blackpool? _ I only want the standard light cluster - not the Lexus one

My figures were just my usual 'finger in the wind' style and I can't work out the prices on Zertecs website
But if you didn't need them painting and fitted them yourself, I think they are only held in with SilkaFlex anyway, I can't see them being anymore than £200, try the Ford Fiesta boyracer websites for ideas and prices but of course I could be talking pants
