Use the flat end of a plastic opening tool to flip up the retaining flap on the headphone jack and front-facing camera ribbon cable ZIF socket.

Use the edge of a plastic opening tool to disconnect the front camera cable from the headphone jack cable.
In removing the front-facing camera at this point, you have likely also removed the ambient light sensor (which allows automatic adjustment of the screen’s brightness according to ambient light. The sensor (in the iPad 4, at least, and it appears extremely similar in the iPad 2) is the module attached above the camera, and has its own tiny hole in the iPad’s glass, just above the one for the camera’s lens.
I have confirmed that replacing the front camera and its attached module restores ambient light sensor function to an iPad 4 (WiFi) that lacked it. I haven’t tested this on an iPad 2, but since the module appears very similar, I surmise that its function is the same.
This is somewhat less clear on this particular model than the others I’ve looked at, though, since the microphone assembly also has a similar module. One way to make an educated guess is to see which module is closest to the device’s glass and lines up with the tiny hole above the one for the lens of the camera itself.
