To remove the rear light, access the boot and remove the sound-absorbing cover that acts as a cap directly over the light housing; once the cover is removed, unscrew the light fixing nuts and pull it out of its housing by sliding it backwards, as the front has a forked slot that fits onto a specific plastic pin; to refit it, reverse the process, inserting the front part first (ensuring the fork fits onto the pin) and then inserting the retaining pins into the designated holes, tightening the respective fixing nuts.

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.
