To remove the outer door panel of the Smart 450, leverage the area around the external handle so that it can be completely removed, disconnecting the connector as well. Once the handle has been removed, detach the seal located at the base of the window, allowing you to free the outer panel.

When the panel is freed, you can completely remove it from the door and replace it with a new spare part. Once this is installed, you can also reposition the outer door handle.

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.
