The Ford Ka MK2 and the Fiat 500 shared the same platform, and although many buyers of the two cars at the time were unaware, they shared some features. One of these was a small secret compartment, where you could store small items or valuables, completely secure.

If not pointed out by the dealer at the time of collection, most users drove the vehicle for years without realising this compartment existed. It is located under the driver's seat (in this video, it is the passenger side because it is a right-hand drive, but in left-hand drives, it is the driver's side).

You need to lift the front part of the seat and then pull it forward. At this point, the seat will open like a lid, revealing a small compartment very handy for storing valuables.

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.
