The tools needed for this operation are: a flathead screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, a Torx spanner, and a spatula. Remove the handle cover and unscrew the retaining screws located beneath the plastic cover.

Also unscrew all the screws on the panel located on the sides, and carefully remove the panel along the edges using the spatula, pulling it upwards. Carefully disconnect the electrical connectors, taking care not to pull them out. Refit the new panel starting with the connection of the electrical cables.

Position the panel upwards and then push it down until it clicks into place. Reinsert the screws.

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.
