Three rapid flashes. One unmistakable warning.
The factory third brake light on your GR86 or BRZ does the job, but it is forgettable. The AlphaRex NOVA-Series Prismatic LED Fourth Brake Light replaces forgettable with unforgettable. Three trapezoidal prisms anchor the center, flanked by a pair of crisp LED tubes, and the whole assembly catches light the way a fighter jet canopy does - faceted, dimensional, alive. It is the kind of detail that makes people look twice in traffic and lingers in every rear-three-quarter photo.
Then you tap the brakes. The F1-inspired blinking mode fires the center prisms three times in rapid succession before settling into a steady red glow - a visual cue borrowed from Formula 1 that says "slowing hard, pay attention" in a language every driver behind you understands instantly. Pair that with true plug-and-play installation and four distinct finishes, and you have a small mod that punches well above its weight.

FAQ
What does the F1-inspired blinking brake feature actually do?
When you press the brake pedal, the three center prisms flash three times in rapid succession before locking into a steady red. It mimics the rain-light warning flash used in Formula 1 and Le Mans racing, making it much easier for drivers behind you to register that you are slowing down - especially in heavy traffic or low-visibility conditions.
Is this truly plug-and-play?
Yes. The NOVA-Series fourth brake light uses the factory connector and mounts in the original location. Remove the stock high-mount brake light, unplug the OEM harness, plug it into the AlphaRex unit, and reinstall. No splicing, no resistors, no coding.
What's in the box?
One AlphaRex NOVA-Series Prismatic LED Fourth Brake Light assembly in the finish you select, ready to install. Hardware transfers from the factory unit.
Which finish should I choose?
Match it to your build. Black Clear is the subtle upgrade, Black Smoke is the full stealth look, Chrome is a premium contrasting accent, and Smoke Clear is a softer tinted option that splits the difference. All four share the same prismatic 3D design and F1 blinking function - only the housing and lens appearance change.
