Did anyone ever buy those illuminated door trim parts?

No mention of MapCare...

Page 20 also suggests that the tiredness recognition system can be retro-fitted to a Cupra - wonder how that works is there and hardware required or is it in VCDS ?????

the tiredness recognition is a SWAP (SoftWare As a Product) function - the money's for a code from SEAT which will activate it, AFAIK the hardware is all there, it just needs programming in. No idea if you can do it via VCDS.

Illuminated sill covers look nice but are really pricey.

Thanks for the info ;o) - I also like the sill covers but the illuminated ones say that no electrical connections are required - how on earth can this be so they must surely tap into the courtest light ?

Are the illuminated door light things included in the Cupra spec?

It says in small print Cupra only any idea why this may be ? - cheers.

No they are not.

Awh that sucks! There wasn't even an option to add them on so I assumed they came as standard... Pfft

You'd think £29500 would get you some novelty door lights ha

 

[mc-obesity]

Is that not what that's talking about? :O

 

[Rob2k68]

I think that is the LED pack which is roof lights, sun visor lights, map lights etc but not boot and glove box light.

The door sills have a small battery in then triggered by a magnet on the door

Glad they have dropped the ridiculous portmanteau word "enjoyneering". See back page

As far as I can see they've got an internal battery supply. It doesn't take a lot of electricity to power some LED's for 30 seconds.

Hmm, it doesn't say Cupra only - it just says available for Cupra. On the internal accessory system it's listed as available for all of the Mk3 Leons, as well as the Cupra. Not sure why it says that in the pdf...
