If the outer covering of the storage compartment drawer of the BMW X3 has come off, let's try to fix it with a DIY intervention. Remove the lower panel, unscrew the screw at the base of the drawer, disconnect the electrical connector and place the drawer on a work surface.

Remove the cover by sliding the pins at its base, take a tube of two-component glue, put a small amount on a base and mix it, spread it on the edge of the cover, join the detached covering and hold it in place with clamps for the drying time of the glue.

Once the successful outcome has been verified, reassemble the drawer.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
