Have you got a working key at all?
Most good locksmiths now keep code cloning machines that can pull the programming from your working key & transfer to a blank. I'd ask at least 2 before re-ordering something from the states again.

yes i have been down the cloning path but because of the shrouded ignition those keys will not insert far enough.
thanks

I bought a key recently from Ford - $90 for the key, $12 to have it recut, then take the whole car & key to Ford and they will re-code it for you.
