What does your local dealer charge for Ford keyless entry remotes?
My Ford dealer wants $119 a piece plus $35 for programming for each of my cars (96 Bronco, 98 Taurus).
I'm curious to see what other dealerships are charging for new remotes and programming.
I'm done with ebay because the listings show new remotes, and 3 out of 3 times I've won - I end up with junk that doesn't work and won't program. First one was superglued together and cracked. Can't check the battery if you can't even open it. Second one was completely corroded inside from water and didn't work. The 3rd one only 1 button worked and it looked like someone tried to superglue the circuit board pieces back together. Each one was advertised as new, or like new and they obviously weren't anywhere close to that. The Keyles Ride site is run by one of those same lying ebay sellers, so thats off the list too.
What does your local dealership charge? I bet there's some that want even more than what mine is charging.

2nd order came in today.
The Taurus remotes were much easier to program, just turning the key and pressing buttons.
I had to program both Bronco remotes together, but it was just 1 extra step on the programming for the pair.
I notice 2 of the other sellers from ebay are removed now - Eagles_Wingz and Sunsetcoverd .

On another forum, somebody mentioned that they had pretty badly limited range with their remote, but if they aimed the remote at their chin, they could get the car to lock and unlock from about 80 ft away.
I tried it when I was headed back to my car from the mall today, and it works...lol. Probably will get brain cancer now...but it about triples the range.
