When the front hood lock of the Smart model 453 breaks, it is necessary to replace it. But how do you access the lock? On this type of vehicle, the lock is covered by a sort of plastic cover that protects it from external agents such as dust that could clog it and damage it. To access the lock, you will need to remove the cover.

To do this, you will need to use a rigid tool such as a flat-head screwdriver to pry and remove the cover.

After that, you will be able to remove the lock on your own.
