Today's instructions will guide us through the process of disassembling and replacing the external rearview mirror of the Tesla Model 3. First, we open the front door of the car and start removing the plastic cover located behind the mirror; then we disconnect the small electrical connector and remove the protective film, as shown in the video.

At this point, we pry on the side of the door panel to detach it at the top, allowing us to unscrew the mirror screws; we then remove the old mirror externally and replace it with the new one!

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.
