i have a few. if you find a remote. any ford remote. the square one with L, UL, alarm and trunk you can program it yourself. no tools required.

(only 2 remotes may be paired at a time. this is due to parameters set in the car. the dealership can increase that number but its set at 2)

I beg to differ. I was able to program 4 remotes with no problems whatsoever.

Call around and ask. as long as it is not part of a service repair ticket, you should get this for list.

Not so, I once thought the same but only certain remotes will work on a '98-'05 CV/MGM/MM... Check out linked post for correct part numbers, should be easy to find one on ebay for $15 or less......
