The reversing camera is installed by replacing one of the number plate light holders: the most time-consuming task is routing the cables from the back of the car radio to the rear bumper, passing behind the dashboard (you need to remove the glove compartment), under the scuff plate, and through the rear luggage compartment.

Once the cable routing is complete, position and secure the lamp holder equipped with the reversing camera, complete the electrical connections, and check the correct operation of the device: it will be very useful for visualising any obstacles during manoeuvres.

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. 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.
