Learn how to remove the gear gaiter on a Ford Transit. Detach the gaiter frame from the plastic covering on the centre tunnel, unscrew the knob until you can pull it off the fastening rod, then slide the gaiter off the rod. Once the gaiter to be replaced is removed, install the new part.

Reassemble: attach the gaiter to the plastic frame, then insert the cover onto the gear rod (secure the clip as shown in the video). Push the gaiter down until it clicks into the plastics of the centre tunnel.

Screw the knob back on at the end of the assembly.

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.
