451 smart fortwo

hi all, i just discovered a way to keep snow and ice off your rear view mirrors, today chicago is getting whacked by the first snow storm of the year and this is my second winter with the smart. the way the mirrors are, they are hard to clean/clear due to being recessed so far in. i have discovered that Hefty "onezip" baggies of the "gallon" size fit perfectly over the mirror assembly.

simply place the baggie over the mirror, zipper side down, then snug it up to the bottom of the "arm", this will keep the mirrors clean and clear and let you drive off faster on them snowy/frosty days. will add photos tomorrow.

Dealer just told me that there is a leak in the vacuum for the fuel tank on my 2008 451 Smart ForTwo as well as a physical leak. The service rep said other cars had this issue. Cost me $1300. Shouldn't this be a recall? These guys need to get their…

Well, yes and no. I'd like to address several misconceptions in the posting from ceejay 2005. 1.- Yes, the plastic laminate holds much of the windshield fragments together, but is actually a mortal danger to unsecured occupants in the car when thei…
