Changing the battery of the Ford Fiesta key/remote is a fairly simple task. First, rotate the actual metal key around its pivot.

Next, insert a small screwdriver into the opening located at the key's metal seat. This will release the small locking mechanism, allowing you to remove the part of the casing attached to the metal key. Take the other part of the casing (the one with the buttons), open it in its two halves (levering at the joint with a small screwdriver), and you will have access to the battery, which you can simply replace.

Reassemble everything, and you're done!

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.
