Bucket seats look to be V3 only - can anyone confirm?
Bucket seats are in all trims, just the material is different (nicer) for V3.
I'm also very keen to learn if this module works for enabling travel assist on the Born.
99.9% sure it will - under the skin, the Born and ID3 are the same car, with the same electronic architecture. Whether you find TA useful is another matter (especially if the Born doesn't come with a capacitative steering wheel like the ID3s generally don't have either).
I'm not especially keen on most the assistance functions, they seem to be in place to enable idiots to get away with playing on their phones while driving, without crashing and don't work as well as you'd like:
Lane assist tries to keep you in the middle of a lane all the time, but conveniently ignores or doesn't see the thing you're going wide to avoid e.g a parked car, or cone narrowing a lane during roadworks, nudging you back towards it.
ACC ties in with the front camera and satnav databases and tries to adjust your speed down/up accordingly. Great, except when you're on a 70mph dual carriageway and it picks up on a 40mph sign up a sliproad you didn't take, or you're on a flyover, over a roundabout and it's trying to slow you down for the roundabout 50 feet below you.
I rarely use the assistance systems for reasons like these.
