How to Renew Yellowed Headlights

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Headlight

Video tutorial

To perform this operation, the YouTuber has created a kit that you can purchase on Amazon, found under the article FAP7ZD0KXGC. The total cost is under £20, especially since you likely already have some of these items at home. Now, let’s proceed.

First, wash the headlights thoroughly with a degreasing detergent, dry them perfectly, and apply masking tape along the edges. Wet some 600 grit sandpaper and sand in a horizontal motion.

Rinse with water and then dry well. Repeat with 800 grit sandpaper, sanding in a vertical motion.

Do it again with 1200 grit sandpaper, this time using a rotary motion; always rinse, dry, and now continue with 2000 grit sandpaper, again with a rotary motion. If desired, you can repeat the process with 3000 grit sandpaper.

Now apply the headlight polish in a rotary motion. Remove the polish with cotton wool, for at least 4 to 5 times, until you achieve the desired effect.

Wash and dry thoroughly with degreaser. Then shape the protective film, trimming any excess with a craft knife.

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.
