How do you remove the front hood of the Smart car?

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Body

The removal of the front hood of the Smart is done by opening the doors, so that the fastening bolts of the hood located at the bottom of the corresponding pillars can be loosened: once these screws have been unscrewed, leverage must be used to detach the front grille, by loosening the additional two screws underneath and removing the screws located at the bottom of the bumper. When all these screws have been loosened, it will be possible to completely detach the front hood, in order to have access to all the components underneath it.
