Complete vehicle harness, except engine. Rodent damage on a new 760i. Bags are full of the wiring/connectors that get pulled through firewall/trunk/rear openings to prevent damage.

I had a car that was often hit by rodents. I got some LED light strips and taped a couple of them under the hood, and wired them to the battery with a fuse. It seemed to work.
Those just stay on the whole time and the rodents stay away? And no issue with the drain on the battery after not using it for a while? The repellent that I have under there flashes aggressively but definitely not bright enough to get the whole engine bay.
