Knowing the location of the legal Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is useful, because if the police stop you and want to cross-check the VIN with the number on your registration document, you need to be able to indicate where the stamped number is located.

In fact, the VIN is not the one listed on the tag on the driver's side.

That is just a courtesy number used by dealerships to move vehicles when they don't have a plate. For the Mercedes C220, the VIN is stamped in front of the rear seat, on the passenger side, in a cut made in the carpet, under the floor mat.

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.
