In this short guide, we will see the instructions that will allow us to disassemble and replace the seal of the side glass of the BMW X5. First, we open the front door of the car and start levering on the top of the door panel, in order to remove it from the seal; then we use thin levers to detach and remove the side glass seal, as shown in the video.

At this point, we install the new seal, fixing it properly on the door; make sure that the side glass lowers and raises correctly and without any obstacles.

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.
