Video tutorial

In this video, see how to install the wind deflector on a Mini Cabrio: perfect for ladies, as it prevents the need to redo hairstyles every time. You can find it on Amazon with the code B0797XTMT2 for £134.00 plus £11.10 for delivery.

The installation is very easy: it will take longer to lower the roof of your Mini than to fit the rear deflector. Then lower the front and rear windows, open the deflector, and insert the two pins into the designated holes at the back, in front of the rear seat, allowing it to snap into place by applying pressure from the centre.

This way, the structure will remain rigid, and you can raise the wind deflector. Similarly, you can easily remove it by folding it in half and storing it in its case.

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.
