I must chime in here and say that if someone wanted to spring for like seven grand or so we Bostig could install an alarm in your van that comes with a Zetec! As part of the Zetec conversion it features Passive Anti-Theft Security (PATS) This system incorporates the stock Ford key that has a chip transponder in it and communicates with the Ford ECU. If the Ford key is not in the appropriate location at start up the van will not start, nor can it be hot wired! So if you were to leave your van while oh say you were on a hike, someone might break into your van but they will not be able to start it and drive away if you take the transponder key with you. I know I would freak out and kick a hole in he sky if someone was to steel my van! As beat up as it is, its all mine mine mine and I'll love it to death. As you may have all seen I'm well on my way to doing just that!
