First, open the tailgate until it is securely held open. Using a plastic bodywork spatula, detach the plastic trim along the upper edge of the bonnet, unscrew the fixing screws of the third brake light, and remove it by releasing the retaining clips.

Then, use the appropriate drilling templates to mark the points for the spoiler fixing holes, and protect the area of the third brake light with masking tape to prevent debris from entering. Punch the marked points and drill the holes with progressively larger bits: apply anti-rust treatment around the edges of the holes.

Next, insert the spoiler fixing clips into the newly drilled holes, apply the gasket around the holes and the area of the third brake light: the latter should be installed on the spoiler. Finally, position and secure the spoiler by applying the caps at the fixing points.

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.
