Replace the front headlight bulbs on a Volvo V50. Open the bonnet by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard and secure it with the prop. Locate the pin that secures the headlight and remove it (located on the side of the headlight).

Remove the headlight from the bumper; pull out the bulb holders from the headlight and extract the damaged bulbs using a screwdriver (if they do not come out easily). Fit the new bulbs (always of the correct type and size) and insert the headlight back into the bumper housing.

Refit all previously removed parts.

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.
