How to Remove the Front Headlight of the Smart?

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

To remove the front headlight of the Smart, you need to take off the front panel of the car by pulling the two tabs located on the sides of the grille: pulling these tabs will free the panel, allowing access to the screws that secure the headlight assembly. These screws can then be loosened, and the headlight can be extracted from its housing while disconnecting the connector inside; the new headlight assembly can then be inserted, allowing you to secure it and reinstall the panel.
