After removing the door panel, secure the window in the closed position, meaning the glass must be all the way up. Remove the entire assembly that allows the window to move, then insert the new assembly in the same position as the old one. Now, start securing it with the bolts for each necessary hole to hold it in place.

Next, connect the various required connectors and perform a few tests before closing the panel again.

If everything works correctly and there are no issues, you can proceed to close the door panel.

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.
