Is the Chim supposed to have a door open, lights on buzzer? Mine doesn't seem to.

If not has anyone retrofitted one? I've walked away from my car with the lights on a couple of times now and so far I've noticed but one of these days it'll catch me out.

My current plan is to use a relay or two such that if the lights are on and the switched supply to the interior light is on then the buzzer sounds...

there's none as std, I have fitted one under the dash top, taking a feed from the courtesy light delay trigger and the dash lights.

I've fitted a Halfords buzzer taking a feed from the light switch and a "live when ignition on" cable. (Can't remember which one at the moment!) Both cables are easily accessible behind the dash on the drivers side. This means the buzzer sounds as soon as the ignition is switched off (with the lights still on) rather than waiting for the door to open.

I have one fitted - flat batterts are such a pest. Spoils your cool when you have to get your pride and joy push started. Easy mod - fitted in a few moments. I guess sometimes we all need modern refinements - anyone know how to fit ABS......

I took your advise and fitted a buzzer, I've done a quick write up here on TVR Chimaera Pages.

Hi, I know that this is a very old post, but the link to how to do this no longer exists. Can it be reposted or does anyone else know how to do this?
