Removing the seats is a procedure that is practically identical on all cars. First, remove the covers on the seat sliding brackets, which are designed to conceal the bolts.

These secure the seat to the car, and now that they are visible, you can unscrew them with an Allen key. If the seat is connected to the airbags, turn off the vehicle and disconnect the wiring. Strange but true, the seat is now removable! Lift it out and take it through the door.

If you want to change your seat, you might consider getting rubber pads to reduce vibrations and thus increase comfort before fitting the new one.

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.

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.
