I checked the part numbers on www.tascaparts.com on the 03 and the 05 and they are NOT the same. Not sure what the difference is but I don't think it will work correctly. A genuine Ford / Mercury rebuilt alternator from Tasca is $111.00 plus shipping.

Somewhere in those years they started controlling the alternator's voltage regulator via the ECU, but not sure which years.
