Your lights wont have any effect on the quality of your seat
So if they kick up, you kick off
My engine needed carbonned up inlet valves sorting recently, (2 days work) they didnt mention the bigger exhaust, sports catalytic converter, different wheels, lowering springs, air horns, decals, front splitter, bonnet vents etc etc......... done on warranty
If its a warranty issue- they should deal with it as that. No excuses.
Good lucksigpicJog on Noddy

Not technically correctly, by making the modifications you have voided the warranty contract which is in place with Citroen as part of that contract is the agreement that you will not modify the vehicle while under warranty.
Your dealer will most likely be sensible about this and will do the warranty work in the seat with the understanding that the lights wouldn't have affected the seat. Now if the warranty claim was to do with the electrical system...
Bear in mind that every dealer has the right of veto on your car if they feel that you have breached the conditions of the warranty. As I have said in the past if you plan to modify your car then having a quick chat with your dealer is not a bad thing as at the end of the day you need them onside to turn a blind eye to certain things from time to time...I should never have doubted the Lord of Bacon!!

yeah, yeah, yeah
they try "we are not changing a broken seat cos you've changed a few bulbs" I would go to court. And contact CUK. Simples
Most dealers are sensible, thankfully. Mine are really good I would add.
