Default Replacement remote key

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew the best place or possible places cheaper than ford to get a remote fob programmed for the car. I only had the one remote and wanted a second in case it is lost.

Can only assume previous only had lost one.


Thanks in advance

Get it to ford and have it reprogrammed and maybe even the locks changed. It's a very common scam that someone will sell you a car with one key, they keep the spare then come round your house and take the car away.
