Fits: Mustang 2008 2007
I've been trying to get the dealership to answer their phone this morning, they are apparently all on donut breaks. Trying to find out if it will definately fit on 2005, and if not, why?
tituswillfordparts.com has it for 73 plus 10 shipping just in case any dealer tries to sell you some ridiculous amount. Rowdy let us know what they say about the 05s.
My local dealership finally answered the phone, I was starting to think it was a holiday or something! They said it is for 2007 & 2008 only, but couldn't give me the reason why it wouldn't work on older models, I really don't think they cared to find out either. Our small town Ford isn't very knowledgable, except on how to grow alfalfa. So if anyone else can comes up with anything different... I guess us poor 2005's are SOL.
Ok, here's an update: after calling various Ford dealers and NOT getting the same answer twice, I have ordered this keypad for my 2005 pony. I ordered from http://www.teamfordparts.com who guarenteed it would work on 2005+. They also have it on sale for $75 (came to $82.50 including DHL shipping) which was the cheapest I found. (Our local dealer wanted $129, and the dealer 60 miles away wanted $149!)

Oh right, the cheapest YOU found
just playin, congrats on the new keypad! the hardest part is waiting for it, I promise (install is the easiest part). just follow the little packet of directions on page 2 and you will be all good.
you will want to keep opening your car through your fuel door from now on.. lol
No worries on the emails, glad to help when I can
post pics here when you are done!
(or get fancy and make your own thread to show off )
Out of all the dealers I called, it was the cheapest I found... ALTHOUGH you were the one who sent me to them!!! Did that sound better? Not really, huh?
The keypad arrived today, and YES it does work on 2005 ponys!!! The only issue I have is the darn thing is too big to fit on the stock gas tank flapper, not so much too big but the stock flap has no where compltely flat to mount it. Any suggestions on where else to put it? (be nice!) or am I now in the market for a new gas flapper? (and if new gas cap is the cure, what color would be best on my silver?) I'm so happy this thing works!!!
Yeh, the key pad fits behind the gas door, just there is no where flat to stick it. Where the swing part of the bracket mounts to the actual circular door part is raised so leaves a ridge instead of flat. I did think about that area next to the windshield wipers. Might just mount it on the garagae wall so I don't have to keep going in the house for keys everytime I need something from the car!

Thumbnail Image Always carry two sets of keys and have a cheap backup. This is extra insurance if the first set is LOST, not locked in the stang as you all seems to be doing somehow. And dont say, "I would never loose my keys", cause if you are locking them inside you are a prime candidate for loosing them as well. And how many of you can remember at will your key code just in case you have to have a dealership cut you another key in an emergency? Memory like a elephant. 4 numbers and a letter. Now for the cheap back-up system thats in place. I have a magnetic reed switch as well inside my drivers side weaterstripping that is hooked to the SJB unlock wire and all I need is a magnet to activate it in a real pinch. The high power rare earth magnet is conviently stored under the vehicle within easy reach. Much cheaper and less obtrusive than the Ford keypad option. I also have the roll the windows up with the trunk unlock button mod as well. Push the trunk unlock on the key fob once and the windows roll up if they are down. If they are up already, nothing happens. Just push it twice fast like when coming out of the store with the windows already up and the trunk pops as normal. Window down trunk popping causes the windows to roll up but its a simple mod without addressing this minor inconvience. But I do like the way your system works for you.
I have never lost or misplace the keys, nor have I ever locked my self out. I did however find this item to be of use when I am outside and forget something in the car. Instead of going all the way inside for keys, I can just hit the keypad. I like your magnet idea, but not sure how to set that up, so for me, the keypad is a simple solution.

The key in the pocket allows me to gain access without the main set of keys. I always wear clothes when outside getting something out of the stang so the extra key is with me at that time. The door unlock trick is super simple and only one wire needs to be soldered and two stage heat shrinked for that factory installed appearance. The other wire is grounded at a factory ground location. http://iihs.net/fsm/?dir=40&viewfile=Power%20Door%20Locks.pdf The DarkBlue/LiteGreen wire at C214 near the drivers side kick panel where it comes from the drivers side door jamb pass thru. Ground this wire and the doors unlock. Magnet reed switch, RadioShack $5.
