Since you haven't heard of these cars having the radio key code, it could be that the shop manual is wrong. It is the shop manual for all Ford products, but I did have it in the Contique section.
But where do you get the code to begin with? Can you get the code out of the existing audio unit? What happens if the battery is disconnected? I bought the car used, and if the code is required once the unit is turned off (i.e. hard off, battery disconnect), what am I to do if the battery dies?
