      • Start by removing the silver plastic face from the camera using a plastic opening tool. Insert the plastic opening tool into the middle of each edge and lift up the tabs that keep the camera face on.

      • The seven plastic tab locations are marked in red.

      • Try using the plastic opening tool before switching to the metal spudger. We tried using the plastic opening tool to pry the camera face off, but found that it did not give us enough leverage.

      • There may be glue holding the camera face on to the housing. Be careful not to flex the camera face too much, or it will crack.
