When purchasing aftermarket remote key covers, the uncut metal key (commonly referred to as the blade) is usually provided as well: in this case, in addition to replacing the shells, you can have the blade cut (that is, have the key combination milled) at a specialized duplication center or, much more simply, just transfer the already cut blade from the old remote to the new one. If you buy a new key from the dealership, it will already be cut. If you need to transfer the cut blade from one remote to another, simply separate the shells, unlock the latch, and remove the blade, then insert it again after attaching it to the new remote.

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.
