How do you open glued headlights

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Headlight

Video tutorial

If we have a stuck headlight that we can't open, this is a practical and economical system: we need a sturdy cardboard box in which to make a hole, with an opening to place a hairdryer with good power. To avoid air leakage, we put an old blanket on top, so that the heat remains inside as much as possible.

We heat the headlight for at least fifteen minutes, and then with a small screwdriver, we go around the perimeter of the headlight to separate the transparent part from the base. If it hasn't come off well, repeat the operation, or insist directly with the hairdryer on the parts that have not detached.

We recommend patience, it requires a lot of delicacy.

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.
