To replace the core plugs, or freeze plugs, on a Fiat Panda, open the bonnet so that the engine block can be accessed. This will allow you to reach the plugs, which need to be removed from their housing using a tool.

Once they are detached, lubricate their housing and clean it to ensure the new plugs fit properly. These should be secured in place with a few taps of a hammer, allowing you to reassemble the engine block.
