Removing the Car Radio from a Smart Fortwo

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Car stereo

Remove the air conditioning control panel located beneath the car radio. Use a plastic lever to detach the trim around the radio, where the air vents are located, and pull it away from the centre console. Once the car radio is free from the covering plastics, unscrew the securing screws on either side with a screwdriver. Extract the car radio from the centre console plastics and disconnect the cables (power and antenna). To install the new car radio, reverse the disassembly steps. Finally, test the operation of the new car radio.
