I recommend buying a large trim piece kit. The hardest part of the camera replacement is dislodging 17 pin clips. six clips are in the corners of the cover panel. Having many, many trim pieces to lift and separate that back cover panel helps to dislodge those pesky white pin clips. It is worth the extra $$, considering you are replacing the camera yourself. Right tool, Right job.
Great video except for one thing . . . I would recommend checking the camera operation BEFORE I put the panels back on. I've met Murphy and his Law and I'd much rather catch a problem beforehand than having to go through all that clip removal again. (Oh, how many times the Murphy's Law and Chinesium combination has bit me in the keester. They're the Dynamic Duo champions of time and money wasting.). Many Chinesium parts come pre-faulty from the factory, internal wires connected to wrong pins (upside-down or inverted video), correct part number on the wrong part, not working at all, etc. As far as the repair process, Great Job! Thanks!
This is a great video. But you need to be really careful with those clips. I know they designed the cars to be built faster. But holy cow trying to get those clips out will make you want to punch your mama. LOL thank you thank you thank you for this video
Yup it is a pain taking those push tab out specially the ones all the way in the inner corner and yup broke a few and it really felt better ha ha ha but the thing is it didnt work still upside down
My God... Whoever designed this thing with 17 clips and 4 you need a camera to see should be ashamed of themselves... A long right angle pick is what I finally them to release with if anyone is struggling...
Can you add a link for the 17 plastic clip replacements? I am unable to gracefully pop out the 17 plastic clips. Is there a trim tool that can be used?
Has anyone successafully got those clips out using a trim piece kit and needle nose pliers? I am really having no luck and am about ready to just break them to get this panel off.

This is exactly the step-by-step instruction manual I needed to replace my backup camera! Thank you!
Sliding a socket over those push in connectors is way easier then needle nose pliers
Camera just went out and ordered replacement. I would have destroyed my Flex without this video. Clear, precise and detailed.. TY so much!!

As a female thank you for this video. Your amazing doing it step by step. I love you 😍
Finally something that's easy to follow. Nice vid. Need to replace mine and didn't know how
Ford should be liable for this. I don't know of anyone with a working backup camera on any newer Ford vehicle
