Will Ebay flip keys work on the '11-'12s?
Pretty much like the subject says, none of the ads for them show as being compatible with '10+ mustangs. I know Ford went to a different style IKT for '11 but would the transmitters be compatible? I don't feel like blowing ~$60 to find out.

Asked about it at the parts counter at my Ford dealer and not one Ford/L/M come with this style and there is not even one available in the Ford accessory catalog.
The aftermarket ones just don't have that "OEM Ford" look IMO so I'm living without.

The style flip key that I have is the same style used as OE on Mazdas. That same style flip key was also used as OE on Taiwan built Ford Escapes.

I know many of you want the Mustang to always remain retro even when it comes to new technologies and trend. No backup camera, GPS, IRS, dual-clutch transmission, SYNC, etc.... However if Ford does that it will be the beginning of the end for the American Icon.

I have the same flip key for my '10 GT but not just for the cool factor. it's the fact that these new keys with the remote on the handle are too **** long and awkward (that's what she said) to lug around in your pocket. The flip key is a nice form factor and quite eloquent.

I stopped using mine, the novelty wore off and it made my keys hit my knee more often which drove me nuts. Waiting eagerly for the '14 Mustang with true keyless entry.
