Chameleon Lighting Help

[zlew]

I need to know what type of lighting to get for my chameleon. Right now i have a 16x16x24" National Geographic Reptile Sanctuary. The lighting I have as of now, is:
http://www.petco.com/product/111462/Zoo-Med-Basking-Combo-Pack.aspx (two separate lamps, i am also using a 100w instead of a 75w.)
I will be getting a panther chameleon as soon as my cage is ready, I am aware that i will need to upgrade my cage I just need to know what lighting to get and replace cost does not matter. Specific products would be great. I am fairly sure that i don't have the right lighting elements.

**Be aware, there is no chameleon in the cage, so no need to worry about one being sick at the moment**

You do not need any heat at night or any light. Unless your temps are going to get below 50 or so(which I doubt with summer being here) you do not need to add heat. You need a uvb light and a basking. What kind of uvb do you have? What temp are you going to get in the basking area with 100 watt bulb? Your cage is small and if it is glass it is going to heat up very quickly with that high of a wattage bulb.

The only lighting i have is the one in the link provided. I don't believe i have any uvb light and the cage is not exclusively glass. there are panels on the sides for ventilation which prevent stagnant air. Im going to assume that the basking temp is around 80-95.

A uvb light is a MUST. Here is a link for you to read. It will tell you everything you need and how to keep your chameleon healthy.
