After seeing Sher Singh's black Chimaera the other day with the rear afterburner lights from Zertec installed, I'm so tempted to buy a set!

They look brilliant!

Sher, if you read this, drop me a mail! We spoke on the A406 last weekend!!

Chees,
Shane

I Have fitted them to my Chim 430, I think they look great and are easy to fit. Be prepared for a long delivery time if you order but they are worth it.

How you Doing wolf?

I think two black Chim's. side by side in stand still traffic on the A406 did draw some attention
glad you like the light's.. am in the process of trying to sell the car (little plug) so don't buy the light's buy the whole car and that way you don't have to worry about delivery times or fitting
Either way if you live around these part's have to meet up at some point when the A406 isn't quite so congested.

I fitted my afterburners on friday afternoon, took about four hours in all, but I did take my time and did not bother with siliconing them in. I'll do this in the summer when the boot is drier. They cost £310 all in, delivery took a week. Clive at Zertec did say they could take ten days though. You can download the instructions from the yahoo list to see what is involved. They look a bit complcated at first but it comes togethor after a few reads. A circuit tester is invaluable to identify the leads and the screwdriver variety only costs £2. I must admit they look the business.

Singh - any chance of a picy, never seen them on a black car, as mine is, I might well be tempted.

Cheers, Nik

Hi Singh! I'm doin' well!

Yep, it's rare to see two Chims side by side, especially two black ones! How comes you're selling the beast?

I'll be up for meeting, drop me a mail when you're around. Any excuse for a drive up the 406 now the weather is improving!

How easy is it to fit the lights with absolutely no technical knowledge and a great desire not to screw it up?

I've done the same as SwanJack and I can say that as long as you have a basic understanding of how electricity works, a multimeter and a steady hand for the Sikaflex, it's a doddle.

Someone else to press the brake pedal so you can identify the correct wires helps too.
