Using a ratchet spanner, start by removing the screws inside the engine bay. Lift the vehicle and unscrew all the screws; the anchor points are distributed around the bumper, underneath the vehicle, and behind the wing. Now it is possible to gently remove the entire bumper.

Start by lifting one corner and then detach all the plastic retaining clips. For fitting the new bumper, proceed in reverse.

After positioning the bumper at the front of the vehicle, push firmly on the edges to engage the plastic clips. Refit all 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.
