Video tutorial

In this video, you will see how to fit a stainless steel protection strip on the door sills of a Toyota RAV-4. This is not just any aluminium strip, but solid stainless steel, which can be found on cartrimhome.com by searching for "Door sill protectors" and your RAV model.

The 4-piece kit costs £37.00, with an additional £16.00 for shipping.

The installation is extremely simple; after thoroughly cleaning the door sill, simply remove the adhesive backing from the strip and firmly attach the protection to the sill. As shown in the video, if it had been fitted earlier, it would have prevented damage.

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.
