In this video we can see how to disassemble the central console of the Seat Leon version 1: we will start by removing the stereo, and to do so even two metal nail files will work, as the friendly youtuber suggests: we will insert them under the radio and lever with a screwdriver so it will come off easily, but we will have to disconnect the electrical connectors behind it. The ashtray is held by a single Philips screw.

Under the ashtray we find two more screws and two more under the CD player that we had removed previously.

In this way we will remove the entire front panel. Now it's time for the screws we find underneath, always with a Philips screwdriver, so we will also remove all the air conditioning controls; pay attention to the screws on the sides, at the bottom of the console.

Now we need to open the glove compartment, which must be removed in turn, by removing the screws at the top; this way the entire central part will come off.

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.
