Lame key -- any upgrades??

This is the ebay seller I bought my key from and it works perfect. Drove the spring pin out to remove the key blank from fob then took to Home Depot and got them to cut it. They wanted to give me some BS but I just spoke to the manager and they did it. I said I would buy a Ford key blank from then (like $2) but I want them to cut my blank, it wasn't a transponder key and I would not hold them responsible if they mess it up. Key was cut and I used the programming method Snoopy49 posted.

The key fob came with a Ford logo sticker but I wanted to make it a little more unique so I found this Shelby Cobra logo sticker on ebay, the Shelby sticker is one of those gel button style stickers. Removed the Ford sticker and then used clear epoxy to attach the Shelby sticker. Think it turned out okay.

What is the difference in this one and the one RobertM listed at half the cost?
It came with a Ford decal already on it. Other than that, they're the exact same key. That's why you have to shop around on ebay.
Can't say the difference between the one RobertM talks about but all I know is the key fob I got from the ebay seller I linked works exactly as it should.

Mine are cut and programmed. They work perfectly. I programmed them myself. The dealer cut them FOR FREE! I gotta say, so far Huntersville Ford has always done right by us in the service department. They've given me headaches a couple times, but in the end, they always make things right. I've been using them for 6 years.
