In every car, there is a light known as the courtesy light. Usually, this is located at the front of the cabin ceiling, halfway between the passenger and driver sides.

The courtesy light is quite functional when you need to search for something. To replace it, you need to change the light unit.

First, remove the rubber cover that usually covers the lamp socket. Then, disengage the springs that hold the lamp holder in place.

Now you can extract the bulb and the light unit to replace them with new parts.

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.
