Isn't strobo = blinking? Blinking tone, as in fast beep-beep-beep?

in regards to the song, the leatherette is just the fake leather (nowadays called 'pleather') material that covers the surface of the car's dashboard. makes more sense if you know the song is about auto(as in car)-erotic/crash-fetishism (re: Crash by jg ballard).
