How to replace the radio on the Smart 450

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Car stereo

In this video, we see how to install a Sony XAV-AX1000 radio (it is the current model of the one shown in the video, which has the same construction and installation features) that you can find on Amazon with the code B07GLTVT62 at the price of 262.45 euros + 18 euros for shipping. We will have to remove the dashboard panel and the frame surrounding the old radio. By removing the bottom part, we can unscrew the four screws holding the device in place; we disconnect the connectors, but we will have to connect the GPS antenna wire to the black wire. Once this is done, we connect the plugs and place the new screen. Before fixing it, we test it and if everything is working fine, we tighten the screws and put back the frame and the panel. Operation completed.
