How do I remove the outer door panel of the Smart 451?

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Door trim panel

In order to remove the external door panel of the Smart 450, you must first loosen the screws that secure the exterior rear-view mirror, in order to have more room to maneuver. Now, it will be necessary to start detaching the fixing clips of the panel from the upper part and subsequently also from the lower part. In this way, the skirt will be free and it will be possible to detach it by lifting it upwards and pulling it outwards. Once the old panel has been removed, you will be able to insert a new spare part and re-fit the rearview mirror.
