To remove the display from the central console of the Ford Explorer, start by unfastening the side trim mouldings from the bottom to avoid breaking the retaining clips. This will give you access to the screws securing the frame around the display, which will then need to be detached along with the climate control buttons.

At this point, only the screws securing the display remain to be undone, allowing you to extract it from its housing and possibly install a CAN-Bus interface as shown in the video.

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.
