To install a double DIN car radio or multimedia system in a Smart 451, you need to: remove the panel on the central console that contains the hazard light switch and central locking controls; the panel is clipped in. Under the panel, you will find three screws that need to be removed to extract the radio support trim; gently pull the trim towards you to free the clips.

Below the trim, locate the other four screws securing the radio, at which point you can extract the unit, taking care to disconnect all connectors and wiring, including the antenna.

Finally, reverse all the steps to reassemble everything.
