Good stuff. I wish you'd done this 3 months ago, would have saved me a lot of hassle. If it's a petrol engine, I would like to see you change the plugs. Keep the videos coming.
The plugs aren't too bad to do but remember there are 6 and you have to remove the rear panels to do the bottom 3. The HT leads can be quite tight, I had 1 which was a pain to remove.
Perfect, everything I needed and nothing I didn't. Only problem I encountered was that I was struggling to get the main cluster connector out (not sure if it's a slightly different design or I was just looking at it upside down) but in any case, I realised I didn't need to remove the cluster anyway, as the dash pad happily lifts right over. Also meant I could start and move the car with everything out.
Thank you very much for this easy step by step tutorial, I need to remove the heater front cover and the full heater unit in the middle, and also the speed gauge to add some nice shiny new parts from eBay, and to make a conversion to LED illumination :) the previous owner was a rowdy that managed to scratch literally everything, and the cooling fins of the middle console heater are broken - but eBay can fix anything, most interior spare parts are cheap and in very good condition for their almost 24 years of age! By the way is there somewhere a full interior carpet and a custom seat cover with wild cat fur pattern print available for the 450? I absolutely need this BORING interior carpet and the seats customized.
I am in the states trying to take the speedo out just like that, for a week, What size is the screwdriver please. I have been at my wits end. Got it. Thanks guys.
One question please, does anyone know why speedometer isnt working, there is light inside like usual, but petrol side, engine temperature side, and speedometer are dead, anyone know why or how to fix that ?

Hey, I'm about to mod my smart fortwo 451 petrol turbo.
I'm going to cover the dash with leather. Is it very similar to remove the dash in mine??
