Approach lights

I want to replace the lead-in lights on the JFK VOR 13R/L "Canarsie" approach. There *are* lights in the scenery -- if you fly right over them -- but that's not how approach lighting is supposed to work! I want lights that can be seen from a distance, big bright lights with a rabbit strobe.Where do I begin? I am a computer programmer, so I think I can do this, but I am totally unfamiliar with the environment. I looked at the SDK docs, but I didn't see anything on guidance lighting.Since there are existing lights in place, it seems that at least placement should be easy.
