Detach the side trims located at the sides of the central tunnel by simply pulling them off: once removed, you can see the two screws securing the climate control switches. Next, using a plastic trim removal tool, detach the frame around the car radio, which also includes the air vents, and remove it by disconnecting the connectors, taking care not to damage the retaining clips.

At this point, unscrew the screws securing the car radio located at the four corners and extract it from its housing by disconnecting the connectors.

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.
