How to Install the Steering Wheel on a Smart 450

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Steering wheel

If you have a steering wheel to install on your Smart 450, follow these steps to complete the process correctly. Take the skeleton part of the steering wheel and start assembling the central part of the steering wheel structure, forming the standard steering wheel (where the electrical connection unit with the car is missing). You also need to add the plastic part containing the wires, and then you can fit the complete steering wheel into the car, connecting the wires correctly. To activate it, download the corresponding Smart application on a PC and find: -Steering Wheel Activation-. This way, you can install the steering wheel without getting too confused inside the car.
