Hi, I read the post and the 99 Sable had the black electrical tape covering the last two numbers, after 20 min of trying to guess the last two numbers I pulled the tape and of course the label came off with it, after trying to soak it off in solvent and failing I held the tape up to a sixty watt bulb and voila code showed right through the tape! Thanks for the great tutuorial and I hope this helps someone!
