How to replace the antenna in a Smart Fortwo 451?

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

Especially in older cars where the antenna is more extended, it may happen that this is damaged and there is a need to replace it. It is a simple operation, we only need a replacement antenna that can be purchased in the various online or physical shops. Being a generic spare part, different attachments will be supplied together with the antenna so that it can be applied in various models. We hold the antenna of the car from the base to rotate it counterclockwise in order to unscrew it, identify the suitable attachment among those available and apply it to the spare antenna, finally screw it into the base of the car.
