Outside HDL Lock Assembly-T Lid without Camera 81260-2V000 Tailgate Rear Hatch Handle Release Sensor Button Fit for 2012-2017 Hyundai Veloster 1.6L V4 Engine

There are half-dozen or more videos online to show how to replace your original Hyundai hatchback button which is great since there are no instructions that come with this item. However, it is a rather simple process that should NOT take a skilled mechanic to complete. I have a 2012 Veloster, and this was actually not the correct part, as I have a rear camera and the wiring for the button and camera are taped together and use a larger plug. I thought that this might be the case, but saved about $20 by not buying the correct part with the camera attached which I did not need as the camera is fine. With this new part, I simply pushed the round, rubber gasket towards the plug to reserve as much of the thin wiring as possible, then cut and spliced the new button & wiring to the existing wiring after cutting off the old button, using the existing OEM gasket (which was better) and existing plug, which was different due to the camera lens. This new button works great, and as others have said, it is far superior to the OEM button. I am slower than most folks, so it took me about an hour to complete this job which included gathering the correct tools, the additional cutting/splicing, and the clean-up.

My fiancé went to Marshalls and coming back from shopping she felt that the button was not there, someone tried to open the trunk by forcing the button out. I saw this one have a good price and it works and feels like the OEM. Simple and quick to install.

Perfect fit, easy to install. I did need to consult YouTube on how to remove the protective covering in order to access the faulty part but the instructions were easy enough to follow. I finished the job in under 20 minutes.

If you are mechanically inclined.....this is a 10 min job. Worked perfectly

Very easy to install with the help of a youtube video! Fit my veloster well, and is still doing great months later! I will say my only complaint is that its a bit stiffer than the original button the car came with, but that may be a good thing for those who use their trunk more often!

The original piece on my 2012 Hyundai Veloster broke. Bought this thinking it’s gonna be a cheap knockoff of the OEM part. But the quality is really good. Easy to install and I’m very happy with this purchase.

For the backlatch for our Veloster. Worked perfect and husband and took about 20 minutes.

Fit perfectly! Easy to install and works great.

It works!!!
