How do you remove seats in the 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe?

Answer 1

There are 4 anchor points for the second row seat in the 2007 Santa Fe. The 2 in front are covered by square plastic caps that snap off. The ones behind the seat are visible when looking down at the base of the seat from the cargo compt. You will need a 9/16 socket with a long handle, as these bolts are tight. For the rear 2, you will need a socket extension of at least12 inches to reach down between the cargo floor and the back of the seats. When all 4 bolts are removed, you can tilt the seat back and remove the anchor bolt for the right side seat belt. Then, fold the back forward and remove the smaller, right side seat. Finally, fold the back forward and remove the larger, left side seat.
