I want to make my header transparent

I came across one post at this forum from a guy asking the same thing as me. There was a bunch of solutions, but none of them worked for me. The solutions that ive tried and didnt work:

1 - Search file base.css.
Paste the below code at bottom of the file → Save

sticky-header,sticky-header* { background: transparent !important;}

2-

Add below css into base.css file (online store->themes->assets->base.css)

.wrapper-header-bottom {
    background-color: transparent !important;
}

3- Open your theme.liquid file, paste the below code before
style> .header.is-sticky { background: rgb(255 255 255 / 45%) !important; }
