How to refill the windshield washer fluid on a Smart car.

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Checks and maintenance

Let's see how to top up the water (or rather, the appropriate liquid) in the windshield washer of a Smart car. On the front of the vehicle, there are two grilles; on the one in front of the passenger, there is a small screw. We can open it with a small screwdriver or even with the car key itself. This way, the grille comes off and gives access to the windshield washer fluid cap. It is better to use the appropriate liquid because it is a cleaner and does not freeze in winter. A 4.5-liter pack costs 6.5 euros on Amazon, plus delivery charges. From here, with a small funnel, we can top up the windshield washer fluid.

How to Install Roof Bars on a Fiat 500X

Learn how to equip your car with universal roof bars. Universal roof bars are used on cars with and without roof rails (fixed bars secured to the car roof). Install the roof bar kit as shown in the video with the bars calibrated according to the width of the car. Position the brackets at both ends of the doors on the car's original roof rails. Once the width of the anchoring brackets is adjusted, tighten the bolts with the butterfly nut (if a lock is present) until fully secured to the roof rails. Finally, apply the safety caps on your Fiat.
