Replacement of the rear light bulbs of the Smart 453.

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Tail light bulb

If we notice that one of the rear headlight bulbs of the Smart car is burnt out, we should replace them as soon as possible in order to drive safely and avoid fines. To replace them, we open the rear window and the door, position ourselves in front of the headlight that contains the bulb to be replaced. Inside the trunk, on the side panel, we will find a panel that we will open by acting on the fastening clip, remove the inner lining and we will have access to the plates where the bulbs are housed. After replacing the burnt out ones, we put back the lining and close the panel.
