... in with the new

SEAT behind the curve a bit with the radar sensor. Some people suffer line of sight issues as it's situated slightly behind the grill. VW new design has it within the VW badge on the front which looks much cleaner. We can't complain too much though, even the new Porsche Cayenne and Lamborghini Urus has ugly looking radars and you could buy a fleet of Cupra's for one of those!
If I could take everything the 300 does and put it in my 280 then I'd be happy, prefer the look of the pre facelift. Also prefer the 5 door to the 3 door but different strokes for different folk as they say. Be boring if we all liked the same thing

Yeah I thought the same, kind of put it down to the car just being new at the minute, but my 290 only had 11k on it when it went, so it was hardly old.
One thing I do love is the ambient lighting and being able to choose the colour... quite a childish thing but I like having the blue glow in the cabin to match the car colour

Mines Red to match the car colour too
Mine are red in my black car and I've changed the footwell leds to red to match as well. Why they didn't install colour changing leds in the footwell as well as door cards I will never know.
The radar is the least of the cayenne concerns in the looks department!!! I'd rather have a different cupra for every other day of the week personally.

OK I might be in touch with you for links for the LED's if possible mate - hasn't been dark enough yet for me to realize the footwell lights didnt change colour aswell
There's a link to ones very similar that to those that I bought in his thread. Think I refer to the actual post by Deano. There's also pics of mine and another members too so you can see what they're like.

That looks awesome in blue, great looking car!
I'll be going to a 5dr from an SC when I change mine (FR though not a Cupra, I say now....), was thinking of going for a Golf GTi next but with the changes for MY19 on the Leon, esp the move from the 1.8tsi (which I have now) to the 2.0tsi and the standard digital cockpit. I'm still undecided on blue or the met red, saw a new 5dr Cupra in the red the other day and it looked stunning in the flesh so now I'm torn, I have about 6-8 months before I have to make my mind up, one thing for sure though is I will never have a black car again!!

Just make sure you don’t damage it. It’s a bitch to colour match!

OK I have had a look through and clicked the links, but its all gotten a bit confusing. Do you have the 300 with these footwell lights?
and did you remove and replace the small surface mount LED?
No mine is fr but same light unit. It's part of he cabin led upgrade you get as part of the convenience pack on the fr. I didn't take anything apart. The whole fitting unclips from the dash and unplug then plug the a3 lights in and clip them back into the dash again. The plugs on the a3 ones are a little tight on the Leon but they will fit (Mine clearly did anyway)OK I have had a look through and clicked the links, but its all gotten a bit confusing.

right ok so you order them from the the website links mentioned but it comes as the whole light unit and you just replace it?
might just sharpee and see how that works for me...
Yeah the ones linked by Deano in post 10 are like the ones I bought. Came as complete fitting that you simply replace with the one already in the car. Then turn down the light output with the settings in the infotainment as they're pretty bright whilst driving at night.right ok so you order them from the the website links mentioned but it comes as the whole light unit and you just replace it?
