Since the invention of the radio (and later stereos), they have been integrated into cars, initially as an expensive option. Now, they are practically standard in all cars; but what if you decide to change it, perhaps for a newer model? The procedure is simple but delicate.

Using a couple of thin plastic tools, gently pry along the corners of the stereo in the dashboard, then remove the relevant wiring, starting from the top. Unscrew two screws, and you will be able to remove the larger part, along with the wiring; the last step is to remove the support screws on the sides.

Now, after carefully disconnecting the wiring, you can replace it!

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.
