Alrite mate
yeah u can get a remote key no probz but it will have to be coded by Ford
£160 seems steep tho......I'm a Ford mechanic at a main dealer and we don't charge that much

Nope it would have to be through Ford......needs linked to computers to code in with PATs system
rough estimate would be £80-100 for key and labour
