To replace the spiral contacts on a Nissan Qashqai, rotate the steering wheel left and right, unscrewing the screws at the rear. This will allow you to detach the front airbag by disconnecting its connectors at the bottom.

Once removed, you can take off the retaining nut to completely remove it. The old contacts can now be taken out and replaced with new spare parts; after installation, remount the steering wheel and the corresponding front airbag, securing everything with the appropriate 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.
