Clear Lens :: Programmable Amber LEDs :: White DRL


Now, it’s no secret what’s happening to the NSX. There’s a movement and I am sure I’m not alone with my life-long love with the NSX - a special machine so invigorating that it revitalizes your senses and your soul. It’s no wonder the values keep going up. Knowing this we knew that creating turn signals for the NSX would be an enormous challenge. Combine that with producing part for the NSX that can harmoniously embrace modern day technology made me feel like climbing Mt Everest would be a much easier task. But I had a vision and a personal goal – to create and design products that fit with all of our own personal all-consuming vision of the perfect NSX.

Clear Lens :: Programmable Amber LEDs :: White DRL


The Arc-Light Mark I is our first ever design to incorporate a never seen before 100% fully programmable LED turn signals for your every own NSX. It’s available with a multitude of options that will satisfy everyone from the ever-sophisticated purist who simply wants to evoke the past with modern day technology to the visionaries with their mouth-watering interpretations of the ultimate reimagined Acura NSX. To accomplish these tasks we've included the following key features:


  • CAD designed custom PCB spec’d with automotive grade components
  • CREE high brightness superflux White LEDs
  • Optional programmable Turn Signals: Available in amber or white with 24 individual addressable LEDs that can be programmed in any order for a total combination of over 1 Decillion unique animimations!
  • Optional programmable Car show mode: When enabled a unique animation loop can be displayed on your turn signals until disabled. The perfect way to exhibit you car and capture the attention of others.
  • Optional programmable car startup/shutdown animation.
  • Dimmable Indicator Light
  • Optional easy accessible military spec USB port for programming
  • No modification to stock lighting harnesses necessary – our turn signal panels receive power from the stock lighting system using bulb bases that plug right into the NSX’s turn signal harness. Note:: A 12v connection is required to enable the programming features of the kit.
  • Professionally assembled into your existing/new OEM turn signals using the finest machined parts and electrical components available.
  • 1 Year warranty


Packages

Now available for order each kit can be configured in the following packages:

MARK I – Prestige :: $1099.00 installed (core required/ship your assemblies)

The Mark I Prestige is our flagship kit that includes our entire vision for the NSX front turn signal. Starting with OEM front turn signals we carefully remove the stock plastic lens and begin the transformation by retrofitting a unique CAD designed bracket that will allow your turn signal assemblies to use our custom laser cut lenses which can be swapped for different lenses at anytime. Also included is our fully programmable LED sequencers and built in USB port - simply plug your turn signals into your MAC/Windows PC and reprogram your turns signals using any of our available turn signal animations or have us work on your very own custom animations!

FAQ

Do you still make the kits with user removable lenses?

Is there a discount for your customers who purchased your tail lights?
-Yes! Please contact me for your special price!

How long will these be available?
-Due to the complex nature of the design and the need for professional installation we have committed to make 20 sets available at this time.

What is your installation turn around time?
-Installs must be scheduled with us. Once we relieved your lights we will complete the retrofit no longer than 5 business days once we receive your lights.

Does the Purist/Classic version have the user programmable feature?

Are the old stock lenses completely removed and replace with the laser cut transparent lenses?
-The Prestige, Platinum, Purist packages remove the stock lens and is replaced by our custom transparent lenses.

Why is the warranty different from your other products?
-Due to the easy access design and serviceability of these lights and to keep costs down we decided to limit the warranty to 1 year. For any issues that occur after one year we will happily repair and replace any component at cost.

That's pretty cool!!!!
 
Do you have any videos or description on what the programs can be made to do? Blink, Sequential, etc.
 
What does "must ship flasher" mean? Is the flasher a separate device or is it part of the light assembly itself? Yes, I am a NSX noob.

Edit: never mind, I figured it out. I just need to know where to find it, but it'll be in the instructions, I'm sure.

I'm probably a Purist at this point, I just want the DRLs and regular flashing amber light.

It would look a billion times better with the rivets everywhere.


Thank you for the question. Going to add this to the FAQ.

The screws was something we had concerns about as well. The main issue is since our lights are aftermarket and low volume we needed a solution to allow our customers to easily swap the lenses in case it gets damaged from road debris. That said we do have other options: one is a permanently sealed assembly and the other semi permanent. Semi permanent in the sense once you remove the lens it cannot be reused. You'll lose the convenience of our easy swap lenses and there is a bit of yearly maintenance required if you go the semi permanent route but if anyone would like this option we can included it in the Prestige, Platinum, and Purist packages at no additional cost.
 
Arc-Light Mark II

Pre 2002 NSX Front Turn Signal Retrofit

We are gauging interest for a re-release of the Mark I and the introduction of the Mark II front turn signal lights. I believe at this time we have a conservative 10 committed orders and to minimize the tooling/setup costs I would like to at least get 10 more. Above is what we like the Mark II to be. Typically a new revision should be a evolution but here we are going for a simple elegance of sorts without programmable sequences. What this hopfully means to you is a better price - approx $150 - $200 savings over our Mark I offerings (final pricing to be determined)

Now the cool stuff...

Those who currently have Mark I lights can easily remove 3 screws from your old LED Panel and 'bolt-on' the new Mark II panels. Furthermore... if you are a current Mark I customer you will get the Mark II panels at COST. Of course, for those who wish to purchase the Mark I and Mark II boards will also get a nice packaged deal. :)

Lastly, I will have a HARD CAP of 20 orders on these lights. If you're interested please PM me for details

YES! WOOOOOT!

I mean, I'm in. My rear Lumi 2.0s are almost together, been working on it a little at a time this week. I'd like just a regular turn signal, I don't need programmable sequences, so Mark II will probably be fine for me.

Clear Lens Prototype


In about a week we will be releasing some major updates to close out our remaining Mark I LED front turn signals. A new all amber edition will released offering a more era-correct look and feel. Also, we have finalized a smooth clear lens that is also replaceable that will be available as a option. If you're interested please PM me for details!

I have the Prestige front bumper lights and the rear Lumi 2.0s. Still awaiting the programmer, but I understand those are a couple weeks out. They look fabulous!

We've just received our production clear lenses in without the screws and they look amazing. Please PM me if interested. This will be our final run of the Mark I lights.
 


A bit late... but before selling the Amber Edition Mark I's I needed to solve the Amber on Amber issue - because with Amber DRLs and Amber turns it would be too hard IMO to be able to see the two when both are on. Well... it's done and the video above will show you a 100% on amber DRL during the day which switches off when the turn signals are on. At night the DRL dims and also switches off when the turns are on. I have only a few of these kits left and they can be made with our new smooth clear lenses. If interested please PM me :)

Available user-swapable translucent lenses


Very interested, but would it at all be possible for you to try out some of this frosted glass film on the clear lenses and post it? It's just a static cling film that is completely removable. You could also probably find some frosted clear tape to go over it.
I would like to see how the LEDs shine through (giving a more uniform look) while masking all of the electronics pieces behind it.

We actually built into the led boards to support diffusers but have not started R&D on them. It may be a future project of ours but it's not a priority for us at the time.

All I'm really asking is for you to put this film on the clear translucent lens and snap a picture of it installed with the lights on.

The alternative is just take the clear translucent lens and sand both sides of it with 400 grit sandpaper so it looks like this. It's a little destructive and not reversible, that's why I suggested the first method:
