How do you replace the door lock of the Smart car?

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Door lock

In order to replace the door lock of the Smart car, you need to open the door itself so that you can locate the screws located on the inner side of the door: these screws must be loosened so that the external handle and internal lock can be completely removed. The lock must be disconnected from the corresponding connector so that it can be replaced with a new spare part; the new lock can then be connected to its connector, inserted into the door, and secured with the appropriate screws.

How to Replace the Rear Light and Bulbs on a Ford Focus Year 2000

To replace the rear light and bulbs on a Ford Focus 2000/2004, first, open the tailgate of the boot. This gives access to the screw that holds the rear light in place. The screw to undo (using an appropriate screwdriver) is located inside the light and corresponds to the fold that accommodates the tailgate (as shown in the images). Once you start to undo it, continue with the operation and then remove the nut from the inside of the bodywork. At this point, you can remove the light, being careful to disconnect the electrical supply by unplugging the connectors or removing the entire bulb holder from its housing. This way, you can replace the bulbs. To reassemble everything, simply follow the described operations in reverse order.
