How to Install a SIM card:
1. Karoo SIM accessories consist of SIM tool and nano-to-micro SIM adapter. Figure 1.
2. Use the nano-to-micro SIM adapter for your nano-SIM cards.
We recommend using a micro SIM card inside Karoo.
3. Turn Karoo upside down and the USB slot facing away from you. Figure 2.
a) Use your thumb to apply slight pressure on the bracket foot.
b) Use your index finger to pry open the backplate from the notch on the upper edge.
4. Pry open the rubber strip covering the SIM slot. Figure 3
Do not pull out the rubber strip as it is attached to Karoo.
5. Insert the SIM card in the slot with the notch on SIM to the upper side. Figure 4.
6. Use the SIM tool to push the SIM inside the slot until you hear a click. Figure 5.
7. Close the SIM slot with the rubber strip and replace the backplate on Karoo. Figure 6.
8. Similar way, to take out the SIM from Karoo use the SIM tool to push in the SIM card until a
click and SIM would pop out itself.

My Karoo has a flush back with no screws, only the mount in the middle. The back of the Karoo in this video has a plate down at the bottom which houses the SIM. There must be multiple Karoo backplates.
It was not possible to install a sim-card to the karro, the sim slot is mechanical very poor.
I think the sim-tool is designed for another item?
There is no function!
