remove the external smart door panel

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Car door

It often happens to see the external plastic of the smart door panel crack, since it is made of plastic and very sensitive to bumps, in this regard today we will see how to replace the broken panel with a new one. First we must necessarily disassemble the handle so as to take the screws that prevent us from disassembling the panel. Put the handle aside, we can start (we can help ourselves with a plastic lever) to force outwards to unlock the hooks that hold the panel firmly, I recommend starting from the top and slowly going down so as to unlock the hooks evenly.
