TPARTS LED Boot Light Strip for Tesla Model Y 2020-2026 — Dual-Color 3K/6K, Auto IR Sensor

This TPARTS LED strip is designed specifically for Tesla Model Y owners who want clearer, more flexible trunk illumination without modifying factory wiring. The kit combines two color temperatures—3K warm white and 6K cool white—with an infrared sensor that automatically activates the light when the trunk opens in low light. Housed in flexible, waterproof silicone, the strip draws minimal current from the vehicle’s auxiliary power outlet, and installs using a compact control box and adhesive sensor, so you can add practical lighting while preserving the car’s interior aesthetics.

How does the dual-color function improve trunk visibility?

The dual-color option lets you choose a cozy warm tone (3K) or a bright cool tone (6K) depending on the task and ambient light. Warm white reduces glare and creates a softer mood, while cool white enhances contrast for locating small items and reading labels. Switching between tones is handled by the included control box so you can set the light for errands, groceries, or nighttime access.

• Two selectable temperatures: 3K warm white and 6K cool white
• One control module toggles color modes quickly
• Warm tone for soft ambiance, cool tone for clear detail

Will the lights turn on only when needed?

Yes — an infrared light sensor detects low ambient brightness and the trunk-opening signal, so the strip powers on automatically only in dim conditions. This prevents needless battery drain during daytime while still ensuring illumination when you access the trunk at night. Correct placement of the sensor sticker and secure mounting of the control box are crucial for reliable automatic behavior.

• Infrared sensor activates lights in low ambient light
• Automatic on/off tied to trunk opening events
• Low idle consumption protects vehicle battery health

Is the TPARTS strip durable and safe for car use?

The strip is encased in flexible silicone rated for dust and water resistance, providing protection against spills and moisture in the trunk. It uses the vehicle’s 12/16V auxiliary power with low overall power draw (approximately 6W per meter), reducing heat and energy impact. The design emphasizes safe installation without cutting factory wiring when connected appropriately to the auxiliary outlet.

• Flexible silicone housing with IP67-level protection
• Low power consumption: about 6 W/m, economical for short use
• Installs using the car’s auxiliary power for damage-free setup

What installation details should I be aware of?

Installation is straightforward but attention to the sensor and control box position matters to performance. The light sensor sticker must be aligned on the control box and the box secured to prevent the strip from staying on or failing to activate. Adhesive backing and compact wiring are supplied to fit the Model Y trunk layout with minimal visible hardware.

• Apply sensor sticker precisely and align it on the control box
• Firmly fix the control box to avoid misreads or persistent lighting
• Included adhesive and connectors match Model Y trunk contours

Who is this for: The TPARTS Trunk LED Light Strip is aimed at Tesla Model Y drivers (2020–2026) who want a neat, reversible upgrade for trunk illumination—people who value energy efficiency, weather-resistant materials, and the choice between warm or cool lighting. It’s ideal for owners who frequently access cargo at night, need better item visibility, or want a subtle lighting enhancement that integrates with the car’s interior without invasive wiring changes.
