    Why do the V8 coils fail? A few thoughts...

He said the new coils are much better than the old motorcraft coils but he told me that if I change the plugs to make sure and use Motorcraft plugs.

    Key Fob Replacement

    I have had the key now for about 4 months and use it every day. It has held up great so far but I don't have any knowledge beyond that. I figured at least there was a 60 day return policy so if I didn't like it or didn't feel it would hold up I could just return it lol.
