This has bothered me since I got my Alldrive Ateca a couple of months ago, but now its dark in the evenings its a real pain.
There does not seem to be an interior light in the boot of it - I have hunted round the boot (in the daylight ) and can not see where the light should be to check it is turned on etc. The instruction manual isnt much help about where it should be.
Can someone help me with where it should be so I can try and track it down
I am uk based so thanks for that.... but i still can not find it (and I have been checking for it in the dark at my horse stables so almost pitch dark). Would anyone be able to find a suitable picture and do an arrow on it to help me.
Sorry I mean't to type "Should be obvious Where it is in daylight"
You should either see it or a rectangular hole in the trim if it is missing
Take it back to the dealer maybe?
If anyone wants to brighten their luggage area I can recommend the 4 LED version of this https://emtuning.co.uk/product/audi-oem-led-upgrade-bulbs/
A bit fiddly to dismantle the existing light unit but fit perfectly, will also fit cabin floor lights
Hello Bedlam, Thanks for your link to the LED bulb for use in the boot.
Is it a direct replacement for the W5W bulb that is presently fitted or do I need to modify the holder? You are correct as it was a bit of a fiddle to remove the metal cover but if I can increase the light level in the boot it would be great. Thanks.
I replaced a single LED board (W5W) on mine with a 4 LED board, but looking at your pics you will have to remove the lampholder and then slot the LED board in
Thanks for your input on that Bedlam. The lamp holder assembly seems to be bonded to the plastic lens so I have emailed the company in your link and I'll wait for them to reply.
This is the one I bought off aliexpress. Very bright. € 6,02 | 1x LED Luggage Compartment Trunk Boot Light Module for SEAT Leon Mk3 5F https://a.aliexpress.com/_msjXBtp
Well, I have a 6 month old Cupra Ateca that I bought from a dealer a month ago. Unfortunately said dealer is 200 mike# away.... I'd noticed that there was no boot light, and assumed the bulb had blown. I'd read here that the original wasn't very bright anyway, so, 2 birds one stone, I bought an 8 LED replacement. So today I went out to put the new lamp in. Popped out the original and discovered why it wasn't working... It wasn't connected to anything. Not only that, but I can't find the wire to which it should be connected! Does anyone have / could someone take photos of a "good" installation?

Thanks Reddamper and others, light arrived and I installed it. Light is sure bright and I like it a lot. I just had to adjust the length of the Item couple of mm and take sharp edges off around the installation hole. Finally.. "snap" and it seated tight in it's place. Perfect! Now it's possible to search small items from the boot without having extra headlight etc.
