Ask a local seasoned locksmith. When I was locksmithing I remember you could cut one of the older five pin ford keys on a single type of blank, and use it for the door, trunk, and igniton, by putting the ignition cuts on one side, and the door cuts on the flip side. It works because they are double sided cut keys going into an older lock that had pins on only one side of the lock, hence you can "flip" the double sided key for those years, and locks and the key would work. You also may want to google "ford key tips and tricks".

Not what he is asking



The torsion bar keys is what he is talking about. Any key 2006 and older is bigger then the 07 and up.
