REBUILDING A CRASH DAMAGED HYUNDAI TUCSON FROM COPART PT2

[@calvindon101]

Good to see a Hyundai Tucson been put back on the road or seem like even one is doing vw bmw etc

[@normanstephens5391]

Hi Nathan. Great content as usual. No wonder the Insurance wrote it off... Cost of parts.. Then Labour and to add Insult to Injury... VAT on top of that. The same is true of every other make really that is classed as (uneconomical to repair). Cheers 👍👍

[@john1059]

Great Video as always Nathan. Just an FYI you can unbolt the top section of the front panel saves emptying the aircon

[@KevinNuttall-s9b]

Awesome video almost a tutorial I be Hyundai will use your video for training

[@Brian-nf6bt]

Well Nathan these cars are expensive to repair,there is a fibre optic goes across the front that pops up the bonnet hinges,that will be smashed on your car I had to pay 700 sovs s/h for one dealer price new was 1500 sovs

[@NathanHiley]

Hi Brian and they sure are . And the fibre optic on the front is the sensor I changed that bolts to the front crash bar not cheap at all . Hyundai did say they use to be double the price but they have dropped the price file recently luckily

Love watching your videos keep them coming ,you are a very clever man 👍

[@NathanHiley]

Thank you Philip 😀

Could you do a video on car cleaning and the difference stages and the order including products used, thanks

[@brianfalconer217]

Ouch, been watching a couple of these on Copart, will pass on them from now on.

[@NathanHiley]

Look for one without front damage 😂 and if no airbags have gone off but has front damage , one way to see if the active hood system has gone off it will show 20mph speed logo in middle left corner of speedo . Also Kia sportage of same era has the same regards Nathan

[@NathanHiley]

[@aarjordan]

Can’t believe Hyundai parts prices no wonder they write them off ,great job

[@NathanHiley]

I was shocked not gonna lie , even Hyundai parts manager said are you sitting down for the prices 🤣

[@kevinshepherd2917]

[@NathanHiley]

Thank you Kevin 😀

[@mrjones9915]

Great video - especially as it highlights the extortionate prices for Hyundai parts - consequently I’d never buy one!

[@NathanHiley]

Thank you mr jones , I guess I bought this one with out doing research on parts prices 😂

[@WagsOnWalks]

Great video Nathan, have you managed to fit the bonnet hinges & actuators yet. Is the pedestrian impact sensor all ok after fitting as I have one to do on a 19 plate cat N.

[@djb4069]

So nice to see you back, was worried about you kept looking for new videos.

[@NathanHiley]

Thank you djb and it’s nice to be back 😀

[@davidsaysful]

Hello Nathan, Thank you for making these videos; they are incredibly helpful. I am in a similar situation and have a few questions. Did you have to replace the bonnet hinges along with the pyrotechnic actuators? If not, how did you set the hinges back into place? Additionally, did you buy a new bonnet and have it painted, or did you get the existing one fixed? Which option would you recommend? Thank you!

[@NathanHiley]

Hi David I had to replace the the both bonnet hinges as they was bent from the accident. I also had to replace the bonnet actuators and a new bonnet as there was damage to the under structure . It’s hard to give you my opinion as not seeing your car

[@leemellor7198]

Excellent mate.

[@NathanHiley]

Thank you Lee 😀

[@v1nnyc]

how much is a bonnet for one of these? Hyundai seem to be having a laugh with the prices

[@danieldavid5276]

I was wondering where u been. How are you?

[@nadiaelaaissi6913]

Hi mate A good job Detailed explanation is appreciated. Is there any way I can contact you for an advice for a similar job ?

[@shayaanrathore1725]

Hi Nathan what website did u use to source the headlight for the Volkswagen up which u did previously

[@NathanHiley]

Hi I used partslink24 to get the genuine part number before I received the car from copart and bought it from tps which they sell genuine Vw,Audi,Skoda parts I’ve also bought hella headlights from autodoc in the past . Which hella is the company who makes the headlight for Vw
