Swift version :

extension UITextField {

    func modifyClearButtonWithImage(image : UIImage) {
        let clearButton = UIButton(type: .Custom)
        clearButton.setImage(image, forState: .Normal)
        clearButton.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 40, 40)
        clearButton.contentMode = .ScaleAspectFit
        clearButton.addTarget(self, action: #selector(UITextField.clear(_:)), forControlEvents: .TouchUpInside)
        self.rightView = clearButton
        self.rightViewMode = .WhileEditing
    }

    func clear(sender : AnyObject) {
        self.text = ""
    }

}
