watching just to watch 👍 i already did this to mine. also changed the actual faces for some aftermarket black ones on my pods and speedo cluster because im going for a darker/black theme overall (car is black panels, black tridion, black leather) 😂 personally i wouldve used a dremel (your natural enemy) with sanding bit to remove the fascia cut outs because me and stanleys into plastic usually ends up in cuts being too deep. horses for courses! luckily i was able to swap mine with the car i got the clocks from. i did also remove my radio to find the connector, the bugger was taped in quite far down! no way to see or find it from the top.
Could you not switch the clock and rev counter round ? I believe it’s just been left that way from the LHD models. Mrs has just bought one and I’m tempted to give it a go
@@northernimagesphotography I have heard of people doing that but I wasn’t bothered enough to risk damaging the new pod set. They are both close enough to see !
Thank you! I buy my new genuine parts from MB/Smart dealer. For used parts see details in description. I also use Autodoc for big savings on OE spec branded components.
On the subject of retrofitting, would it be possible to retrofit cruise control or automatic headlights? I have a 2008 smart 451 that has them but a 2015 smart 451 that doesn’t. Could I part swap?
I genuinely don’t know as I haven’t delved into that one. So far though, I’ve found lots of wiring already in place for various options, which is reassuring.
Excellent clear instructions just what i need to do. Well done.

I already have those two pods, plus a satnav "pod" but your video shows me how to get into that part of the dashboard, thank you 🙂
I have the 2009 Brabus so they came with the car, but I loved watching you install them.
I also have a 2009 brabus and one of mine broke off I dont know howto get it up and connected
Hello one of mine heads the tachometer broke off so from watching this video I now need to replace this as a set ??
Die Zusatzinstrumente passen sehr gut zum Smart.
Viele Grüße, Jürgen

Great video. I am going to fit a set to my Smart Car for two 451 2009. Would yo be able to disclose who you use for your genuine parts?

Is there a address to send something to I understand the need for privacy.
Unfortunately I do not have a PO Box set up and for security reasons I cannot disclose my location.
