Needlenose pliers was the answer.

Thanks for that... I joined here so I could post my question but moderators have to approve posts of new members (smart policy). So I tossed it up on YouTube too. I did get the cover off so I could confirm the connector looked the same. I think it does, though I wasn't able to get it unplugged. It appears there is a clip to press down to release it but I wasn't able to unplug it. Any tips for disconnecting the connector?

What year is your Edge? We have a 2019 and I'm hoping this will work for it. The Dongar site says 21+. And this powers down as soon as the car is off and door is opened right? (That's my issue with using the 12 volt sockets, they stayed powered for too long).
