Does anyone know of an OEM Ford valve stem TPMS sensor that works on the 07-09 cars?

I have my wheels out to powdercoat and figured now is a good time to replace my incorrect 10-14 sensors with some 07-09 frequency sensors.
But that being said the original 07-09 ones were band style and I want valve stem style.

Does anyone know of any other model vehicles from Ford that the frequency is the same to sync to my car?
Anyone know what the frequency is so I can confirm?
I am trying to get them ordered today so they are here when my wheels are back

Interestingly enough, all the sources I am seeing says all the 05+ Mustangs are 315MHZ, but the OEM Ford sensors on my wheels currently will not pair. I currently have the M-1180-A which will not sync

The more I think about this, I may just ditch the sensors all together and just disable in Forscan and be done with it. The car lives on drag radials anyway and usually sits below the pressure thresh hold, so I will save the money and screw around with Forscan

Just turn them off. I turned mine off a year or so ago. They never turned off since I ran 15-25 psi in the rear drag radials. So nice to not have any lights on the dash when I am just out cruising to work or to get ice cream.

Do you use that expensive Scanner? Or the one with the flip switch?
I found mine eventually goes away from the reset button, but I hate having to reset it each time I get in. It gets annoying.

I had a Ford IDS for a while. After 2 years of clicking the button to clear the message from the screen I finally said the hell with it and found the code like to turn off.

Thanks, yea I think that is a whole diff range of $$$ for me. lol. I guess I'll get the $60 deal Forscan reccomends and hope I can figure out the codes needed. I have a bunch of Ford vehicles so I am sure I can make this of some use

To be honest the forescan looks easier to use. I needed to do some module programming and unlocking some ecus when I did my auto swap then my cluster swap. It ended up being cheaper for me to buy the IDS, use it for a few months then sell it for 250 less that I bought it for, than to pay the dealer to do all my programming.

I havent looked at it in too much detail, but looks like you really need to know the sensors by their codes and some sort of listing of the values associated.
I wish it was just a 1/0 thing for on/off, but I am sure I will figure it out if I spend some time on it

I ended up just buying mine through Discount Tire and they used ones off of a newer model. Wanted to go through them since their pricing was similar but would rather let them deal with any syncing issues. Few weeks later I'm now debating if I should have done it at all since, like you mentioned, airing down the tires will put them below the threshold and I'll have a light on anyways which is what I wanted to avoid.

Put 4 sensors in a pvc 2” tube with a shrader valve at the end. Fill to 30psi put in trunk. Thank me later! Lol
