How do you remove the instrument cluster from the Smart 450?

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Instrument cluster

In order to remove the instrument panel of the Smart 450, it is necessary to loosen the three screws located under the steering column. When the three screws have been loosened and removed, it will be possible to grab the plastic cover that wraps the instrument panel and lift it, also removing the instrument panel connected to it. In order to remove it completely, you will also need to disconnect the connector attached to its rear. Once the old instrument cluster has been removed, the new replacement part can be inserted and installed.
