How to open the front hood of a Smart Fortwo

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Body

Open the front hood of the Smart Fortwo for maintenance? Let's see in this video how to proceed. We open the plastic levers placed on the sides of the front grille with our hands. Once the latches are released, lift the hood a little and remove it from the car body as shown in the video. Once the aforementioned piece has been removed, we carry out maintenance on our car. To proceed with the assembly, we fix the hood with our hands over the front part of the nose and then on the lower part. Finally we close the levers of the front hood opening (at both ends).

If you want to improve visibility inside the boot compartment, it is recommended to replace the original incandescent bulb with a LED type (T10 fitting); once the rear hatch is opened, locate the bulb holder positioned on the side, near the shock absorber dome, where the plastic grille is located. Then, lever the retaining tab to extract the bulb holder, disconnect the power connector, and remove the old bulb to replace it with the LED one; reconnect the power, check the correct operation of the bulb (if not, rotate it 180°), and reposition the bulb holder in its place.
