How to Remove the Rear Light of the Smart 450?

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Tail light

To remove the rear light of the Smart 450, open the boot and loosen the two bolts located between the seal and the three rear lights. This will allow you to loosen the plastic that surrounds the three lights and slide it out of its housing, disconnecting the connectors attached to the rear. Once the connectors are disconnected, you can slide out the lights and replace them with new spare parts. The new light unit must be secured in its housing by tightening the appropriate bolts.
