Unhappy antenna wire

Hi guys

I try to find the antenna wire for the phone and the harness in my car E-320 Elegance 2003.

I look under the plastic black piece in trunk there is nothing at all just the battery wires.

in vehicle equipment sheet code 354 for ANTENNA FOR TELEPHONE D/E NET

plz some one tell me what does that mean
is my car have the antenna wire and phone harness or what?
what does this code mean 354?

I think maybe all wires and harness run near the audio gatway (left side of trunk)


I need your help guys

THIS IS THE OEM EXPLANATION

1 Prepare portable cellular telephone wiring harness (2) as shown in figure

LABELS of reference.

3 = FSE interface
5 = VDA connection
A = Loudspeaker connector (not required)
B = Portable cellular telephone mount connector
D = Microphone connector (not required)

2/
Attach control module FSE (3) to CTEL wiring harness (2) and stick control module behind glove box using 2-sided adhesive tape as illustrated.

3/
Uncover tied-back antenna line (ANT) and connection (VDA) to right A-pillar and route beneath glove box. Attach connector (VDA) to CTEL wiring harness.

4/
Attach CTEL (1) holder cable to wiring harness (2). Also attach CTEL (1) holder antenna cable.

5/
Route cable behind right air duct (arrow) and fix in place using adhesive felt.

6/
After installing telephone console (12) attach CTEL holder (1) and lead helix cable out along underside of telephone console


B and 3 look like PC connectors, 5 looks like a 10 pin, 2 row molex item.

A and D arent used, they look like 2 pin connectors.

The antenna is in the a-pillar. Just like the factory instructions.
