The number plate lights are integrated into the lower strip of the rear bonnet, just below the manufacturer's badge: unscrew the fixing screws of the light units to remove them from their respective housings; then unclip the bulb holder by turning it anti-clockwise and extract the old bulb (T10 fitting); fit the new bulb and, if it is LED type, ensure it lights up; if not, rotate it 180 degrees as LEDs have a polarity that must be respected; once both bulbs are replaced, reposition the bulb holders and reattach the light units under the edge of the bonnet.

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.
