  1. Advanced Diagnostics springs to mind, check out there MVP (Multi Vehicle Programmer) its based on a Pay As You Go system They offer training days & their Technical Support/Back-up is second to non
  2. The easiest way, but not nessisarly the best method, as the closing seam at the rear of the boot leg will be pulled askew of its vertical line If the boots are zipped, the zips can be unpicked to half there length, then a slim wedge of the upper leather can be cut from each side equaling the total reduction & tapering down the leg to nothing, e.g a 1" reduction equals 1/2" from each side, then adhere the zip to its new position and re-stitch, trim the waste lining back close to the seam for a neat job. A charge of around £30 per pair sounds about right for doing it this way
  3. I've successfully modified a WL34 to create the 087 Window Lock Key, The 087 is the same as the 088 except the bullet is on the opposite side of the bit

  9. buying the new update...? What new update?, is this software, device, machine or transponder related
  10. The Laserkey machine/service & back-up is all supplied free of charge, they will make their profits from their own unique branded key blanks which cost from £1.50 each for a cylinder key, with an RRP of £3.99 I've trialed the first prototype in the UK for them & although it's an amazing piece of technology it is slow, It has been manufactured not for exsisting key cutting shops, but for busy areas e.g. shopping malls, DIY sheds & the like, that can become involved in the industry without the outlay of buying machinery & training operators When the yanks installed it, I suggested programming a 'repeat last key' function in to the PC, so you could cut another key the same without scanning the original again, this they thought would be useful and added it to the software, but it took a British guy to come up with that idea in the first place lol
  11. Yup that'll be Laserkey UK With video & audio prompts the Laserkey machine is very user friendly, so much so a kid could operate it, & so little training needed
