Removing the boot lock on Smart Cabrio

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Door lock

Remove the boot side protectors which are simply fixed by a torx screw, then remove them with the help of a flat screwdriver. On the sides of the small hatch there are two latches that block it thanks to the central lock command. Remove these fasteners by unscrewing the two (head) fixing bolts. Raise the rear window and lower the tailgate: make holes next to the clips as shown in the video, so that you can push the clips with a screwdriver. Raise the surface panel so that you can unscrew the bolts of the bottom panel of the trunk and thus access the lock.
