YM E-Bright LED Hood Light Strip 79in White Dynamic-Scan DRL — IP68 Waterproof, Cuttable

YM E-Bright's 79-inch LED hood light strip is a flexible, waterproof 12V dynamic-scan daytime running light designed to mount under the hood gap for a striking start-up scan and steady driving illumination.

This slim LED hood beam adds a modern, high-visibility accent to cars, trucks, SUVs, vans and boats. It combines a start-up running scan effect with a constant-on driving mode, is IP68 waterproof, and can be trimmed at marked cut points to fit specific installations. The strip uses soft silicone housing with double-sided heavy-duty Nano tape for attachment and includes basic accessories for installation and testing.

How does the dynamic scan start-up work and what does it look like?

When you turn the vehicle on, the strip performs a progressive scan effect along the LED array to create a flowing, animated start-up. Once the vehicle is running, it stays in a steady, constant illumination suited for daytime running light (DRL) use or accent lighting. The effect increases vehicle visibility and gives a contemporary styling cue without complicated electronics.

• Automatic scanning sequence on ignition then steady lighting while driving
• Visible flowing LED motion across the full 79" length
• Works on any 12V system when wired to ACC and ground
• Non-intrusive aesthetic—suits many vehicle fronts and engine covers

Is the strip durable enough for outdoor and automotive use?

The light strip is rated IP68 for water resistance and built from flexible silicone to withstand vibration and typical weather exposure. Adhesive Nano tape on both sides helps secure it under the hood gap, and a fuse-protected circuit reduces short-circuit risk. Avoid direct high-pressure washing and seal any cut ends carefully to preserve waterproofing.

• IP68 waterproof housing suitable for road use and light water exposure
• Soft silicone sheath resists vibration and bending
• Short-circuit protection and included fuse for added safety
• Installation caution: avoid high-pressure washers on the strip

Can I fit this 79-inch strip to my vehicle and modify its length?

The strip measures 79 inches (200 cm) and suits most 12V cars, trucks, SUVs, vans and boats provided there is at least a 0.8 cm (0.31 in) gap between the hood and body where it mounts. It can be cut only at marked points, though cutting may shift the scanning sequence alignment. Always seal trimmed ends and verify wiring before final installation.

• 79 inches long, 0.8 cm thick—check hood-to-body clearance first
• Cuttable at marked locations; scanning point may change after trimming
• Works as hood, grill, ambient or license plate accent light on 12V systems
• Pack includes hot glue stick, test probe, and user instructions for setup

What wiring and support come with the product?

Wiring is straightforward: black to ground (negative) and red to an ACC-switched fuse so the strip powers on with the ignition. The kit includes a test probe to help find the correct ACC fuse and a hot glue stick to secure trimmed ends. YM E-Bright provides a one-year quality support plan and customer service for installation or manufacturing concerns.

• Connect black to negative/ground and red to ACC fuse for ignition control
• Test pencil included to identify ACC fuse in the fuse box
• Hot glue stick supplied for sealing cut ends and improving adhesion
• One-year support and customer service for product issues

Who is this for: Drivers and vehicle modifiers who want a bold, customizable exterior accent that improves visibility and modernizes the front-end look. It’s ideal for DIY installers, weekend customizers, and small-business fleets seeking a distinctive daytime running light or grill/hood accent, as long as the vehicle has the necessary hood gap and a 12V electrical system.
