The following steps will show us how to open the hood of the Ford Transit. First, we open the front door on the driver's side and start pulling the hood release lever that we find at the bottom, thus releasing the hood opening mechanism; then we move to the front and pull the small lever that we find between the hood and the bumper grille (located in the central part), as shown in the video.

At this point, we lift the hood, securing the rod to lock it; we drop the hood from a certain height to close it.

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.
