I realize this is more of a "life hack" but I figured I'd share and try to "pay it forward/back" since I've learned so much from this forum.

So, if you ever want an exploded view of your vehicle, specifically body panels, interior, etc. Give ebay a try. I know it sounds weird but MANY items are displayed as a "blue print" item from a Ford DVD rather than the actual picture.

Hopefully this link will provide a sufficient example. (Warning: I don't know how long that link will be valid. IF it ever fails, just look for a grommet, rivet, etc on the body panel you're needing a view of.

Caveat emptor: These images aren't the best and may not be exactly what you need, but they are better than nothing.

fordparts.com is where these diagrams are drawn from originally.  But I have definitely found EBay helpful MANY times when I know the name of the part I am looking for, reverse engineering if you will :)  Ford's naming convention can be "citpyrc".
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
