How do you remove the air conditioner controls from the Smart car?

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: A/C controls

In order to remove the air conditioning controls of the Smart car, you need to pry with an object so that you can detach the molding located at the top of the panel and also the radio located at the bottom. At this point, it will be possible to loosen the screws that secure the control panel at its top and bottom: by doing so, the panel can be extracted from its housing and the connectors at the back can be disconnected. Now, the new control panel can be properly connected and fixed to its housing.
