the upr logo is stupid

 

I have seen them in person and they look cool. But a running pony would definately rock. Heck they could play it super safe and just put 'ford' on there.

I was thinking about the key after I gave up on the Fusion one and was glad it didnt work to keep me from wasting money on probably the dumbest 'mod' I ever came up with. I was going about 110 today and noticed that I really couldn't see the key nor really cared about what it looked like anymore.

 

Ford is Going to FUSION Style Keys on all Models In the Future. I have no Phase in Timeline at the Moment. Ya know I came Accross some Snazzy Keys In my Dealer Mail the Other Day. I will ck if they have any 05/06 Stang Offerings! FYI I have Emailed Ford on The Plain Keys more than once.

Cool, thanks for the info. Keep us updated.

I would think the cost would go down over the two seperate compenents over time. I have just decided I could care less about car keys unless I can't find em.

 

Any word on Mustang keys from that place?

 

Agreed. I wonder how many sales they lose because they insist on putting that on everything.

 

I know of at least one they lost. Mine.

 

The (UPR) website also mentions that the remote case reduces the range of the remote. That hardly seems worth it. :notnice:

Unfortunately I didn't see that posted on Steeda's website. I have the Steeda Billet remote cover. You have to be so close to the car for the ermote to work you might as well use the key!

I guess I am just old, but in my view a key is a key is a key. Why all the moaning about a few scratches on a key? Most of the time it is either hung up on a key holder or in your pocket or purse. When in use, who the heck is going to be looking at a stupid key? [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/headscratch.gif[/img] [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/04.gif[/img]

Yup - To me it's just a key. Nothing more or less - I need it to start the car but won't spend 2 minutes or $2 to try and improve upon it...

 

I recently bought a key and fob off ebay. They were new and still in the Ford plastic bags. I got them both for under $30. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...Y_BIN_Stores_IT

The key looked a little different and when I took it to be cut they told me it wouldn't work. It was from an earlier model. I had him cut it anyway. I figured I didn't have much to loose. I programed both in about 5 minutes and they both work just fine.

I also recall in another thread that someone else got the key with the metallic Ford logo to work also. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img]

 

WooHoo!!
Thanks, Jack.
Time to start looking for a "new-old" key.

 

I bought this off ebay and works great, much better looking than the key from the factory.

HEY !! THAT'S MY RANGER KEY. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img]

 

I don't mind the key or key fob. My key, attached by itself to the running pony keychain, is almost always in the ignition. I have my other keys attached to the remote and I lock the door when I go in somewhere. If the car is out of site for a length of time, I do remove the key and place it somewhere in the car.
