How to remove and seal the rear window of a Smart 450

Model: Smart Smart Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

To do this operation, we need to start by removing the seal from the inside: we can see that there is a small tab in the corner that we can remove using a screwdriver. Once this is removed, the seal frame comes off, pulling it gently towards us. After this, we can remove the entire rear window from the outside. The purpose is to apply sealant from the inside, as the window was letting water through. First, we need to clean the bodywork from the old sealant, then we can proceed to lay down the new one following the old one's trace. We place the window back on top and press it down so we can remove the excess sealant from the inside. Then we can put the seal back on from the inside, closing it with the tab.

Unscrew the securing bolts located at the side of the rear light with a screwdriver (using a socket spanner or screwdriver with a bit). Once the light is free from any constraints, detach it from the bodywork (disconnect the relevant power connectors). Replace the damaged bulbs with identical ones in size and voltage. Finally, reassemble the light and reverse the assembly of the other parts.
