So the documents from Ford say:
"2ME - H - M79 - V - 0 - 4 - X 000000"

The 2ME is for "Ford Motor Company of Canada".
The H for all the airbags.
The M79 for Mercury Marauder.

Why then is the first of my VIN: 2MHHM79.... ?

What's extra H for? Why is there no E after the M ?
(It is the the correct VIN for my car).

Does this have anything to do with the car being "not complete" because of the Moonroof option?

The H means the vehicle left the plant as a incomplete vehicle to get the Moonroof installed. Only 04's have this because of the factory moonroof option.

Second H is for incomplete vehicle... Scares ya huh???

The '04 with sun roof got that VIN because the install was done outside the factory...

I believe American Sunroof Company did the moonroof installs.

Ya it probably was "ASC".

They are also the company responsible for changing Fox Mustang "Notches" into convertibles.
