Today, you will learn two very simple tasks: replacing the glass of the external rear-view mirror and the lower protective cover. To remove the glass, you can simply try to detach it by hand, working gently and releasing the clips until it is completely removed.

Disconnect the wires, and you're done. Now, you can work on the clips of the lower cover: to do this, push on those tabs from inside the housing, as shown in the video, using a small flathead screwdriver.

Good luck!

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.
