Video tutorial

In this video, we see how to replace the rear light of a Skoda Octavia MK1: we open the trunk and remove the carpet covering the rear light. By pressing on the two sides of the internal optical group, we easily remove the entire group, including the bulbs.

We replace the one we are interested in, and when positioning the new one, we always remember not to touch it with bare hands, but to use disposable gloves, as the person in the video rightly shows us. The bulbs have a bayonet fitting, so they must be inserted by pressing and then turning them a quarter turn.

We put the bulbs back in place, cover them with the carpet and close the trunk.

Job done.

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.
