Unscrew the original mounted antenna. The "shark fin" antenna you purchased will have a screw with two nuts: the lower nut is used to adjust the length of the screw to fit the support thread.

Insert the screw and tighten it fully, then lower the nut onto the support and tighten it with a spanner. Position the "fin" to your liking and mark around it with a marker.

Remove the lower film from the fin, which covers the adhesive part, and apply the appropriate glue before positioning the fin within the outline you drew with the marker.

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.
