You would uninstall the connector going into the TPM module and put it back to stock configuration. The new RMU integrates through the OBD port on the drivers side. Ford Tech hotline did say that there is a port on the side of the RMU module in which you can plug your long range antenna into and still use your Bi-Directional remote in conjunction with the Remote Access system.

Unfortunately you would need to purchase the 2 components or if you can find the older version kit that should do as well.

I went down to my truck and pulled out the RMST module from my 200 series. There are no open plugs that match the RMU's, only a 4 pin which i have no idea what it's for.
I wont be buying this setup if that is the case. A big F-U to Ford from me.

UPDATEING
the thing only worked once or twice out of 10 trys
DEALER WAS USELESS, he still waiting for tech support to get back to him(its been 2 weeks)
Turns out the problem lies in the aftermarket HID ballast.
Disconnected them and everything is working as it should
I have the same setup for a 2012.
Lately I'v been getting a lot of "can not connect try later "messages
another thing is the sleep mode is a PITA (you have to use it within 2 days or you have to physically use the key )and I haven't figured out how to override it. Do you know anything about it??
