To replace the hood of the Smart 451, you need to detach the rivets located at the front of the hood, corresponding to the top of the windscreen: once these rivets have been removed, you can fully lower the old hood by disconnecting the hooks positioned at the base of the rear.

Once the old hood has been removed, you can insert the new one by connecting the rivets at the front and rear, ensuring that the hood operates correctly.
