Remote start fob

I just bought an 05 F250. The key fobs that came with it are the standard 3-button door lock ones, but while under the dash looking for something, I discovered that it has the factory remote start module installed. I've looked everywhere online, but can't seem to find replacement fobs. I'm trying to avoid factory fobs from the dealer due to obvious price gouging. Does anyone know where to where to find them at a reasonable price?

Not sure how to find what you need. A quick search on eBay revealed this generic key.

I always enjoy the instant ruling out of someones best option. Even if you think the pricing is high, why wouldn't you call your parts department and get a part number.

If it's a Ford module, there should be an engineering part number on it. Take that number to the dealer to find out what you have. Ford made both a long range remote start as well as a remote start/security kit. Both take different FOBs.
