Due to the friction generated by gear changes, the gaiter covering the gear lever may deteriorate and even tear: it is very easy to obtain the replacement part and carry out the replacement; to remove the old gaiter, simply unclip it from the frame at the base of the gaiter and then slide it off the gear lever after unscrewing the knob; take care to transfer the plastic insert that operates the reverse mechanism from the old gaiter to the new one, then proceed in reverse for installation, clipping the frame back onto the base and reattaching the knob.

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.
