Video tutorial

In this video, see how to install a LED strip in the cup holder of a Fiat Punto Evo: some basic electronic knowledge is needed, but it’s not difficult. You can obtain the LED strip from any e-commerce site for a few pounds, as well as a roll of 0.50mm red and black wire, connectors, and heat shrink tubing.

Join the black and red wires from the roll to the wires of the LED strip with a small soldering, and use the heat shrink tubing. You will need about forty centimetres of wire, stripping the ends to attach the connectors.

Position the strip in place (you will need to remove the panel), where you will find a bolt for the ground connection. Run the wire and connect the positive wire; lift the gear lever gaiter and connect it to the cigarette lighter.

Check if it works; it should light up when the position lights are on, so that’s good!

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.
