Give your NSX a modern look ~ LED DRL in choice of Amber/White ~ Bolt-On or Headlight

[EuroBoutique]

thanks for the picture dawk ~ looks great!


Thanks for your patience for those who sent in their headlights - 2 sets are done and ready to be shipped out today! The ver.2 LED's fit the nsx headlight curvature really nicely.

Here's a sample setup (notice the amber bulb on one side and the clear LED bulbs on the other side that blinks amber when on)

This set will be going out today as well for installation :biggrin:

Please get a pic of this on the car. I am still on the fence on the LED's. I'll send mine in as soon as I make this decision. Frankly one worry I have is that if an LED goes out on that strip, you must pull the headlamp apart again and we haven't tested this real long term. A number of LED's have failed in my housing due to heat.

How do you have these wired? as parking lights or DRL's?

Mine are wired to my parking lights so I have some control over when they are turned on. Wiring as DRL's is pretty easy as well

We have about a dozen sets of headlights out with s2000, bmw, nsx, and motorcycle clients and none of them have had LED failures.

In my s2000 I've had them in my car for well over 6 months without any issues and this is in the CA sun.

Oscar, your lights got shipped out last Friday! Sorry for delay - please post some pictures of the final outcome when you get them.

It's been a 100 degree plus weekend so haven't got much work done here...

thanks!

Great job!* Thanks for supporting the NSX community through innovation.* I would like to order one of your remaining NA1 sets.* However, going up your website, there doesn't seem to be any distinction between the model years.* Is the $189.00 set one size fits all with the choice of white or amber being the only option?* Thanks in advance.

Here you go...pics on the car. Sorry they aren't the best. :redface:

 

[EuroBoutique]

Looks pretty bright Rich!

Can't wait to see them in operation at a local meet thanks for the post :biggrin:

 

[oscar_driver]

:wink: I LOVE them!!
Easy to install (45 -both sides- minutes been super picky) .. i took pics of the installation, later on i'll give to Rick to put on his site as PDF to use as reference, during the day they look fantastic, they are not intrusive nor bling bling, it does add some extra flashiness to our nsx -not that the NSX is flashy enough- but yeah, @ night it also looks great, the best is that it doesn't look "rice" or out of place @ all ... i'll meet some car guys this weekend and see what they say but I am very happy myself.

[spase]

[oscar_driver]

now, the last pics i promise!

Question about the wiring for ver 1...they use the turn signal wires or parking light wires? Do they flash like turn signals then?

Question about the wiring for ver 1...they use the turn signal wires or parking light wires? Do they flash like turn signals then?

Great question and the answer is it can be hooked up to either based on what you want the lights to do.

Take a look at my answers on page 3 of this post since we're doing something similiar for s2000 owners here:

http://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=713149&st=0


The wiring is so easy anyone can do it in 10-15 minutes

a) Lower white LED's can act as DRL's meaning they come on whenever car is running so it makes the car easier to see in daytime.

b) Lower white LED's can be hooked up to parking lights so they are turned on via the parking lights stalk

c) Lower white LED's can be wired to blinkers AND parking lights (requires a special relay setup that I've learned while doing my motorcycle wiring)

d) Lower white LED's can be custom wired to a switch so they can be controlled anytime owner wants them such as car shows, car meets, etc.

Whats the life of these led lights? and what happens if one goes out, can one led get replaced or does the whole thing have to get replaced?

Likely long. None of my LED flashilights have failed, while HID's and halogen go out all the time.

Excellent question and as another poster said, LED's in general have EXTREMELY long life and low heat output thus they do last a very long time. I've experimented with many different brands as quality does make a difference and these are the best.

The ones that you see here have been used in my s2000 for well over 6 months with no issue. I've been using these same LED's in stereo setups and other accent lighting as well and they have proven to be excellent in terms of wear. Most likley they will last longer than most people keep cars!

As a testament to the low power draw, I once left my LED's accidently on for a long weekend while on a Tahoe ski trip. Came back, car started right up and the s2000 has a TINY battery!

UPDATE: 7/30/09

Just shipped out one more set today so caught up on backorders! thanks again to everyone for their patience

We have x2 sets of the 2002+ DRL's in stock ready to ship and x3 sets of the 91-01 DRL's ready to go!

FYI we just did a local install on a 1991 NSX with the Downforce 2002+ fiberglass bumper and though the shape looks exactly like a 2002 bumper the openings in the lower fog areas are not the same size. Apparently it's a bit shorter but no worries now that I have the template I can build more. Just please remember to specify if you have a Downforce 2002+ bumper

Look for some pics of this black beauty once I get a chance to take some.

thanks
rick

Rick,

Thanks for the custom order.

+1 on the pictures on the 02+ with DRLs in the headlight installed on the car.

 

[raven]

Any update on the installation instructions?* Wiring instructions for DRL, on always please.

 

[PAUL M]

Im very happy with the leds. Very easy install.took me about 15 min.

I'm looking to pick up some hid's to match them. Would you happen to know which ones would work? 6000k? im not sure
Thanks
