Remote Start Antenna Location on 2013 Fusion Hybrid SE

[gmarshall]

I have a 2013 Fusion Hybrid SE with the Lane Keep system and the Rain Sensing Wipers that are housed in a rather large black box attached to the windshield behind the rearview mirror. Does anyone know how to remove this housing without damaging it so I can put it back on. The reason I ask is I am getting ready to install the Ford DS7Z-19G364-A (one-way) remote start system in this vehicle and I was told that I could mount the antenna for this system behind this housing so it does not show from inside the vehicle. I have not been able to see a 2013 Fusion Hybrid SE with the factory installed remote system to see where the antenna was installed from the factory. Does anyone have a factory installed remote on 2013 Fusion Hybrid SE that could look and see where their antenna is located. I would like to make this install look as close to a factory install as possible. Also anyone who has had a remote start system dealer or self installed on a 2013 Fusion Hybrid SE please let me know where you or the dealer located your antenna.

Thanks,

gmarshall

You have asked this question all over the place. Here's the answer I gave you on the Ford Fusion" forum:

 

Yes I have all the options so I have the "big black box" - the remote antenna is located just to the right of the box and at the top of the windshield and my EZPass is located to the right of the antenna. As you can see by my avatar, I also have an elephant in my back seat.

My factory installed remote start antenna is installed on my left side as high as possible beside the camera for lane keeping.

I believe it's in front of the in car rear view mirror.

Mine was installed on the passenger side high up on the windshield. I bitched about how it did not look like a factory install so they hid it somewhere (headliner, black box I do not know). I have not noticed any lack of sensitivity to the system since they hid the antenna.
