i tried to search it but no luck. . i had a strap break on me and it banged off the tailgate pretty hard and now the actual camera is in the tailgate is it possible to be able to pop it back in after i fish it out of the tailgate or do i need to get a new camera

 

If its the stock camera in the ford sign, you may need a new camera as i thought it was always one piece.

Stage 3 has some and it appears to be a one piece, outside of the tailgate. How did it fall in?

The camera is a separate part. I have seen them on ebay.

According to Ford you have to replace the entire emblem as tabs break when trying to remove/install camera.

I would like to add to this. The emblem the camera in is 1 part #. You also have to get the blue ford emblem as a 2nd part. I heard If you remove the blue ford emblem from the chrome camera housing. There are 2 tabs that will break. You can glue the emblem back on. But to me if you do that and have to replace the chrome housing. It makes it harder to remove. I have bought both pieces to replace on mine, but lost the blue ford emblem. So I never did. OP Thanx for the reminder so I can find my emblem lol
