Video tutorial

This video shows how to fix an automatic gear knob on an Opel Zafira that was deteriorating prematurely. Instead of replacing the entire knob, a cover was applied, resolving the issue with minimal effort and cost.

The model shown in the video is unfortunately no longer available, but we recommend this code on Amazon B0CLNTRYM7; it is a type of eco-leather cap: simply wrap it around the knob and secure it with Velcro. It costs £20.00, with free delivery.

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.
