  • Gap between roof and back trim? Smart ForTwo

    I have a new to me Smart ForTwo 2004 and noticed for the first time a sizable gap between the glass roof edge and the back top trim... large enough to fit my hand down...is this normal? I cant see the tops of them on ebay sale Smarts and none local to me to check!

    Not knowing the size of your hands, hard to say....
    A photo (car not hands) would maybe help.

        No, this isn't normal.

        Taking a look at my wifes 2004 City-Coupe, at the centre of the roof to the spoiler, it looks to be a < 2cm gap. With my fingers, I can just get the tips into the gap.

          Thanks Ocracoke for checking that for me, Im relieved to say the gap is much the same as you note...when I said I can get my hand in I meant down and nearly to the second knuckle and then of course the inner chassis, or whatever, begins... I was just concerned that the gap seemed quite wide but had no point of reference to check if it was valid. I wondered if a section of exterier trim had been missing. Im grateful for your help.
