Default Where is the factory remote start module located?

I'm trying to determine if my daughter's new 2019 XLT has the remote start module. Remote start shows up in the advanced menu on the dash, but that may just be the cellular option. Where is the physical unit located on a 2019 if it has it?

I think if you remove the kick panel below the steering wheel it is mounted near the obd2 port.

Not 100% sure though

My quick look in that location had three unused harness connectors...

It comes as a part of the 'Equipment Group 302A' which would list 'Remote Start System' right on the Window Sticker. The key FOB should have a button displaying a clockwise arrow with 2X in the center of it. You press the LOCK button once and the 2X rapidly twice and the truck should start.
