i have no keys so i need everything, ignition, doors, and hatch. should i get them from someone who has a parts car or can i get a full kit from somewhere? if i use a parts car are the ignition switchs the same for a 4 and 8 cylinder car and is the hatch lock the same as a trunk lock?

Try taking your VIN# to Ford to see if they can get you key for your existing locks?

Other wise, LRS has lock sets. They don't include the ignition switch though.

the dealer can only go back to 03 so they had me call a locksmith and they will pick and cut me the keys for the whole car at my house for $95. so thanks for the lead that got me the answer i needed.

Thanks for posting back what you found. I'd no idea that they only went back a few years. Good to know.

95 is pretty good deal. If you bought all new locks and had to install them You would probably spend more than 95

Back around 2004 I replaced ign. cylinder on my '84, doors and hatch and got the whole set at O' reilly auto parts. Dunno if they still can get them , but I'd try them. Don't remember cost, but it was cheap, surprisingly.

I wonder how much a locksmith would charge to make keys for the existing locks? I had a locksmith match a lock cylinder for my door to my keys for 2o bucks after someone tried to break into my car.

thats a good deal but i would have three keys, are the doors and hatch the same from the factory? i do know people at autozone for a little added savings. i have something to think about. has anyone removed the ignition lock? some of the ones i have done on other trucks and cars need the key to remove them.

i think the big factor is in the end of my post asking about if i need a key to remove the ignition lock because if i dont that i will get it from autozone but if i have to get the locksmith anyways than i might as well let him pick the doors also.
