I did a little digging and as I suspected, probably half of the ebay sellers don't have a clue what the proper part number or FCC ID is for a Crown Vic/Grand Marquis/Marauder remote(same ones are used for all three in '03 & '04)... Also searched a few past posts and yup there are cases of board members getting the wrong ones, so in this light I decided to post the correct numbers, not everyone has a remote to refer to...
(information on back of remote)
FCC ID : CWTWB1U313
CANADA : 1788 102 352
2003 # F8AB-15K601-BA
FCC ID : CWTWB1U343
CANADA : 1788A-FWB1U343
2004 # 3W73-15K601-AA
Either remote will work for '03 or '04, likely the '04 part number replaces the earlier remote but the '03 version seems to be far more common on ebay(those have been around since 1998)...
Remember if you buy any other remote, it isn't going to work... It's common on ebay for one with FCC ID ending in 331 being listed as a replacement, don't believe it(I've tried those, it ain't happnin')...
