The side indicator light is simply clipped to the rear bumper: it is sufficient to lever it out sideways with a small screwdriver to remove it along with the bulb holder; at this point, unclip the bulb holder by turning it counterclockwise (bayonet fitting) and proceed with the bulb replacement: before inserting the new one, check the oxidation state of the contacts in the bulb holder and clean them with contact spray if necessary (it may also be effective to slightly tighten the contacts for better adherence to the bulb).

Insert the new bulb and proceed in reverse for reassembly.

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.
