SilverHolder Car Hood Light Strip White 70 Inches Exterior Flexible Daytime LED Running Light for Cars, SUVs, Trucks

I was so excited upon finding this product and even more excited after reading quite a few reviews. This led strip is great in theory and looks very cool once you get it installed. I was somewhat concerned with the waterproof resilience of it when I inspected it out of the box and was extremely worried about the cheap almost inexistent wire they use in the build but I installed it anyway. And like I said before it looks awesome once you get it installed, HOWEVER, I had it on the truck less than a week before it began to malfunction. It will flicker and begin to run the start scan and then stop and restart the process. Eventually it will stop illuminating altogether. I had gone through the car wash once in that week as I like to keep my truck clean but I feel if you’re going to say something is waterproof it should not have these problems, that I have now read is fairly common with this brand and item. I really loved this item originally and was hopeful it would last for quite a while but unfortunately it did not. I caution everyone considering this item to look elsewhere. ***UPDATE*** The company contacted me and asked if I would like a replacement at no charge. I agreed and received a new version of this item from them within a couple of days. The new version is awesome and works flawlessly! I have ran the truck through the car wash multiple times without any issue. I also observed that they had changed the power and ground lead wires to a much heftier gauge which I’m sure helps as well. All in all I am overly satisfied with this item now and love having it on my truck!

Let's start with the bad. it's a short summary. After getting the wiring done and before I mounted the strip, I tested the lights by turning the ignition on and they worked perfectly. I turned the car off and stuck the strip where I wanted it to be and turned the car back on. The lights went through their scrolling start up (super cool, btw), but after that the passenger side flickered twice and shut off. They haven't worked since. I tried to get some product support, but it takes you to a blank page. Super disappointed as this strip looks great and got great reviews. Maybe I got a bad egg? I dunno. SUPER easy to install. I used a wiretap to connect into the driver side daytime running lights (the white wire on a 2022-2024 Nissan Pathfinder) and used a fork connector to attach to a ground on the frame. The lights only shine through one side (as said in other reviews) so make sure you mount with the correct side facing outwards. The red tape covering the adhesive was a little bit of a pain to remove without the adhesive coming off of the light strip, but once I got them to separate, no issues. Just make sure you clean the surface before you stick it on.

I'm absolutely thrilled with this LED light strip, and I wish I'd installed it sooner! My initial concern: I've always admired trucks with custom lighting details, but I was reluctant to mess with my vehicle's electrical system. The thought of wiring in LED lights seemed risky and potentially complicated—I didn't want to damage anything or create electrical issues. The reality: Turns out I was worried about nothing! This installation was surprisingly simple, completely safe, and took me about 30 minutes from start to finish. If I can do it, trust me, you can too! The results are incredible: This light strip gives my truck that sleek, factory-installed look I've always wanted. It's not just about aesthetics either—the functional benefits are outstanding. The additional road lighting significantly improves visibility, making nighttime driving safer and more confident. Installation tips: YouTube videos for this product made everything crystal clear (huge shoutout to SilverHolder—thank you!). You will need a standard (or mini) fuse tap for easy, safe wiring into your fuse box. You can find these on Amazon, of course. Simply find a switched fuse, tap into it, add a ground connection, and you're done! The process is straightforward and non-intimidating once you see how it's done. Bottom line: If you've been hesitating like I was, don't wait any longer! This is one of the best upgrades I've made to my truck—combining style, safety, and functionality in one affordable package. The end results are absolutely awesome, and you'll be amazed at how professional it looks. Highly recommend!

Only 6 leds working in the entire strip. Not recommended for anyone

Many reviews complain this product stops working. There is a good reason. Although the manufacturer states the strip can be bent (moulded and formed to shape to fit the vehicle), this is not entirely true. My strip, upon testing, only half-worked. Wiggling the end of the strip that didn’t light, flicked the light on and off. Obviously, a connection issue. Upon close inspection, I found 2 things: a small tear in the strip; and that the strip is not one continuous piece — It is in fact joined/soldered. Clearly, these connection points are a weakness, and are highly prone to breaking should you do what the manufacturer states you can: “It can be bent at your will.” Well, no, it can’t. Worse, upon closer inspection, I discovered yet another join. Same problem: poorly connected; and it too came apart. So, in a small LED strip (only 1.8m in length) there are in fact THREE strips, poorly joined at 2 connection points. I repeatedly reached out to the manufacturer, with photos showing the issue. Unfortunately, it appeared their email was broken. Upon finally communicating with them, they refused to admit fault, honour the warranty, and replace then product. BUYER BEWARE!

I've had these on my Ranger Tremor for a couple of months now and have to say that they really look great. They were easy to install and I have had no issues with them. They've been through rain, snow, and temperatures below -30°c and work flawlessly. I was skeptical but I can recommend these after putting them through a couple of months use thus far!

I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!

looks good when fitted
