Do you want to replace the external handle with a lock (left side) on a Citroen C3? In this detailed video, we will briefly see how to remove it from the door housing. To remove the lock, we need to take off the door panel, so let's proceed with the disassembly: unscrew the screws on the side of the door panel (as shown in the video) and remove it; take off the left cover of the handle, then slide the handle to the left of the door.

Remove the lock and the door opening handle. Install the new lock, attach the handle, and tighten it with a screwdriver.

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.
