How to install the bike rack on a Smart 450/451.

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Body

In this video, we see how it is possible to install a bike rack specifically designed for Smart 450/451. It is called the Rack4smart, which can be found on eBay with the code 165533297044, priced at 205,000 euros + 20.00 euros for shipping. First, we join together the two halves of the tube and insert the bolts into the lower terminals of the square tube on both sides. Now, we remove the caps on the rear bumper of the car; align the assembled piece in the holes and secure them by turning them clockwise, then remove the keys from the bolts. In the upper part of the "u" support, we insert the bike support by fixing it with the appropriate screw support from the back, on both sides. We attach a safety strip to the rear window of the car. Now, we can load our bike by securing it with the appropriate supports.
