Video tutorial

In this video, we see how it is possible to disassemble the front headlight of a Volkswagen Golf IV without having to remove the entire bumper. In fact, this model of Volkswagen, which in some markets was called "Bora," has an intelligent method for removing the headlight without the need to remove or at least loosen the entire front bumper.

If we carefully observe, on the bumper, corresponding to the headlights, we see that there are small cuts: these are small doors, which - once opened - show us that inside there are the screws for fixing the headlight. By removing the screws, we can remove the headlight while keeping the bumper in place.

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.
