can sorta see the outside one there...

The one on the inside is remote start. Do you have remote start?
The one on the outside is probably satellite radio. Do you have that?

The first pic is for sat radio Shawn. It is somewhere in the cab. Probably behind the dash. Might not have the unit anymore though. No Rick but the city is dealing with a big issue. I will send a pm.

yeah it could be tied up out of the way Shawn and you just saw the antenna adapter that was used. COuld also have been cut by previous owner when they took out the sat radio before trading the truck in. Best suggestion is to pull the wire and see where it runs into the cab at and then follow it from there. If I was closer I could give you a hand with it.

Had a friend with an antenna like that in the right corner of the windshield and it was for remote start. He didn't have one on the outside.
There is an X on the surface of the inside. Would that be for XM satellite radio?

the one on the outside seems to have the wire be pushed right through the windshield seem... least thats how it appears... doesnt look like its running down anywhere... and is probably tucked up under the head liner..

inside thing says XHF on it... looked up what the sticker under the hood says the remote starts supposed to be... finding antennas that look just like it..
