Ford Flex Plugged Cowl Vent Drains

Unplugged my 2010 Ford Flex cowl vent drains. Took about 5 minutes to examine the disassembly locations, another 20 to remove the clips and shrouds and push the debris down the drain holes, another five minutes to put it back together. You will need a pocket knife to pry/pop the caps on the wiper arms. Then remove the wiper arms (many youtube videos showing how to pry off the arms) Then pop the two small cowl ends on top of the large cowl. Just lift up the corner of the small ones at the joint, and pull straight up. Lift the hood. Use the pocket knife to pop the plastic grommets along the edge of the cowl. First, pop the little plastic "nail head" looking portion (the smaller one, on top of the large one) up about a 1/4" or more first, then push up from the bottom and pull the whole plastic grommet out of the holes of the cowl. This grommet is two pieces, so don't lose the pieces. (put all the fasteners in your pockets so you don't lose them) Next, pull the metal clip that is squeezing the top cowl, to the bottom half, at the left and right sides. If all the fasteners are removed, the top should move freely, even with the washer hoses connected. Holding up the small cowl piece at one corner of the windshield, carefully pull the large cowl top toward the front of the car (see video). The bottom portion of the cowl will have white plastic wedge clips that should not be removed from the body of the car, but rather, slide the bottom cowl toward the rear of the car and out of the clip, then remove the larger of the two bottom portions of the cowl. (see in video) Now the same removal for the smaller bottom portion of the cowl. The video shows the drains, and assembly is just reversed.
