Has anyone noticed that the rear light bar on the hybrid Tarraco FRe actually lights up?? Have a look

.

I wonder if it's available as an upgrade? I guess it's wishful thinking that it might all be there and just need some programming to enable it.

I think it somehow completes the look - what do others think?

the part will defn be able to purchase (at what cost) and there will always be away to fit it and get it working.

However, it's all down to cost. I don't think Seat will release a retrofit kit like for example the 2018> Union Jack tail lights on the mini for the pre 2018 cars.

Noticed that the hybrid also has the new10inch infotainment screen with updated graphics.

Had a chat to my local SEAT Parts Dept this morning about this and he reckoned that there were no different parts shown on the parts list.

It is possible that only some specs are available in only some markets so the idea isn't completely dead - yet!

Seat can't even make the actual red strip (without LED) between the taillights watertight.....
So I wouldn't trust any strip with LED to be any better.

Is this something thats common?
We are picking ours up tomorrow, when we went to look at it, we noticed water droplets all along the strip, did mention it to them to sort it.
Spoke to dealer today and they have told me theres nothing wrong with it....

Wonder if i take it off and seal it with some sealant

Yes that's a common problem.
I have had mine already replaced (under warranty) for 6/7 months ago.
Now there is moist in it again.

Alan Pritchard at SEAT Parts established that the rear lights on the FRe are completely different with each light cluster at the rear extending across the back door to meet with a small gap in the middle above the "S".

It may still be possible to upgrade but it's going to be expensive as both left and right clusters would have to be replaced.
