Open the front bonnet and detach the trim by disconnecting the release tab of the bonnet. Remove the front bumper and wheel arch liners; at this point, you can access the fixing pins of the headlights and then remove them by disconnecting the respective connector.

Also, remove the plastic cover located just behind the headlight. Then, fit the new headlight by first connecting the plug and seating it in its housing.

Tighten the respective fixing pins and reassemble the bumper and then the trim. The new LED daylight headlights will give the vehicle a more modern and appealing look.

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.
