Where does the Anti-theft device mount? I know it's up high in the dash but I cant figure out where that bracket mounts too.

I didn't realize that the OBS trucks had anti theft. But the Remote Keyless Entry module mounts behind the pocket in the knee panel.




This truck is missing its module that goes on the metal bracket beside the blue/green box.





This is the RKE module on the bracket. The blue/green box is behind the gray foam.

Yes, antitheft was available on 94-95 OBS trucks with keyless entry. I know the module does not mount down by where the keyless entry is located. It mounts further up on the dash but I just can't figure out where.

What is the blue/green module? I see those on gassers at the junk yard all the time.

I think the other module is either airbag or 4 wheel antilock brakes. Neither of which is on the OBS f250 or f350 that I have seen.

I took the part number off of one of the blue/green modules once and looked it up and I think it was for the airbag. The reason I didn't really pay attention to it is because I found out I didn't need it in my F250. Which makes me belive it is for the airbag.
