No GPS signal. Suggestions before I go to the dealer?

Tasca is telling me that the part number for the box behind the mirror is DE8Z-10E887-C. Could anyone be bothered to check that for me?
Also is there a mounting bracket? And if there is, what is that part number?

Received my order from Tasca today. Walked out to my car this evening, plugged it right in and the gps works! Thanks so much Steve for helping me get the right parts the first time. The compass does not display the correct heading, but I assume it needs calibration and will fix itself once I start driving.

One more question for everyone. Just so I don't inadvertently mess something up. In what orientation is your box? I'm planning on mounting it with the cord coming out of the top (as shown below). It seems that would be the only logical orientation but just making sure.



I purchased this car used and it still baffles me how the person who replaced the windshield unplugged the little black box and discarded it with the old windshield. [dunno]

Any rocket science involved in removing the cover? I just wired in my radar detector and I routed the cable over the channel in the cover that hides the power cord for the GPS. I thought it was glued, but if it is removable I could probably slip the radar power cord under it...

If you are referring to the GPS antenna cover, it looks like it will pop off if you pull from the end where the wires come out.
