The "easy boot" system allows you to replace the CV boot without having to dismantle it. The boot is open along one side and wraps around the driveshaft. At this point, apply the supplied glue along the channel on the edge and join the two flaps to close the boot: wait 5 minutes for the glue to dry and set (once glued, it is practically impossible to reopen it). Then detach the retaining clips of the old boot, cut it (with scissors or a utility knife) and remove it. Fill the new boot with specific grease for CV joints and insert it into its seat; finally, apply and tighten the supplied clips.

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.
