2012-2021 Tesla Model S AlphaRex NOVA-Series LED Projector Headlights

2012-2021 Tesla Model S AlphaRex NOVA-Series LED Headlights

Bring your pre-Refresh Model S into the modern era. AlphaRex's NOVA-Series LED Projector Headlights blend a tribute to the original Model S DRL design with their signature 3D Ice-Cube projectors and the most aggressive lighting upgrade available for the chassis.

The result is a Model S front end that finally matches the speed of the car — a five-projector layout for serious nighttime output, a switchback white/amber DRL that doubles as a full sequential turn signal, and AlphaRex's signature activation light sequence that fires every time you walk up and the car wakes.

Key Features

• Five 3D Ice-Cube NOVA Projectors — all five fire for low beam; inner two transition to high beam
• Osram Oslon Black Chip LEDs — benchmark-grade automotive LEDs for low beam output
• AlphaRex LUXX LEDs — proprietary dual-beam projector LED for serious high beam intensity
• Switchback DRL — choose white or amber daytime running lights to match your Tesla's look
• Full Sequential Turn Signal — the entire LED tube sweeps (the original Model S only animated the top portion)
• Activation Light Sequence — running animation triggers when you unlock the car, ideal for handle-out moments
• Perfect projection cut-off — meets American LHD regulations with zero glare
• Plug-and-play harness — bolts onto factory mounting points, no cutting or splicing

Housing & Lens Construction

• Housing material: Polypropylene (PP) — heat and moisture resistant
• Lens material: Polycarbonate (PC) with anti-fog and UV-resistant coatings
• Available finishes: Black (matte black with chrome accents) or Alpha-Black (premium darker variant)
• Nitto Denko TEMISH® CAPSEAL™ air vents — "breathing" technology that prevents condensation and maintains lens clarity over time
• Side marker: Amber
