Lower the gear gaiter at the junction with the knob. At this point, you will be able to extract the small metal clip using a small flat-head screwdriver or any pointed tool.

That's it! This will allow you to remove the gear knob, as it is held in place only by that small metal clip just removed. Once done, if you want to remove the gaiter as well, you can do so easily: just pull the entire plate to which it is attached and remove it from the gear lever.

For reassembly, proceed in reverse order.

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.
