2018/19 Key Fob with 2015-17 Cars

[Sub-Moa]

To start, I hate my 2016 Mustang's key fob. That silver piping is peeling off and it feels cheap in the hand because of the quality of plastic. Recently I rented a new F150 while on vacation and liked that key fob. I searched the new 2018/19 mustang's key fob and saw it was nearly identical to the F150's key fob.

Are the keys cross compatible? They seem to emit the same frequency.

Wow... Apologies for not using the search function. Haven't been on here for a while. Here's the answer if anyone is curious besides me.

The only caveat on using 2018+ fobs vs 2015-17 fobs, is the manual and auto fobs are different frequencies. Found this out the hard way. So manual to manual and auto to auto works fine, whether you want an older style on your 2018+ or want the newer style on your 2015-17. And you can mix like I have, 2 new and 1 old (spare).
