Let's see in this video how to remove the center console of the BMW X3, starting with the trim around the gear shift. We will need a couple of hook tools: we can find a complete set with the code 601099807228946 for the price of 8.50 euros on Temu. On this platform, shipping is free for orders of 20 euros or more.

Let's remove the entire chrome trim that is around the gear shift by prying it off and taking out all the clips. In fact, this piece is held in place only by pressure.

We will expose the screws, and then we can remove the panel around the gear shift lever.

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.
