  1. Sorry I can't help you. I know what it's like. I still have parts for cars I don't even own anymore. Anyone interested in OEM Mustang struts?
  2. Any idea on what the total cost was? Time, labor, parts....?
  3. Just use the wiring to the stereo. Splice into the harness.
  4. For some owners, this key chart will apply. I believe that this chart is about a decade old. Newer cars made in the last 10 years will have a different type of key.
  5. Transponder keys have an RFID chip inside of the key. That is recognized by a reader near the ignition. It can be cloned. You can buy a key blank, copy your key for the physical lock tumblers, and then electronically clone the RFID of your key. The car will see both keys as the same key. There are different things that can be done with the electronic key identification by the car's passive anti theft system. With a Ford IDS computer, or a Snap On computer, it is possible to delete individual keys, delete all keys, program new keys, etc. Most dealerships, automotive locksmiths, and some independent mechanics, will know how to do this. In The USA, you have the right to repair. Key blanks and key fobs are easily found online, and in retail stores. Any hardware store or shoe repair shop can manually duplicate the cuts on a key. You can certainly buy a Ford IDS computer or a Snap On computer. Key clone tools are readily available from locksmith suppliers, and even on Amazon and eBay.
  6. A lot of probabilities. Somebody needs to do an inspection. If you are not capable of performing your own diagnostics, then a good mechanic is needed. You don't want everyone online giving you wild guesses about the various computer modules which control different functions, the electrical relays and fuses, the wiring harnesses and connectors, squirrels and rats chewing on wires, water intrusion shorting out electronics............
  7. Physical fitment might be the easy part. Getting everything to plug in and work will be a lot harder. Maybe not even possible.
  8. Sounds like a fun project.
  9. What kind of battery did you get?
  10. Try checking with Ford. Maybe even your dealership. The parts counter guy may be able to find it on his computer.
