Just had my car coded by Alex, and I can't say enough good things about the whole process.

I bought the LCI retrofit harness from him and got it over the weekend. Alex made time for me last night for quite a while as we encountered some issues with the first computer I tried to use for the remote coding.

Awesome experience, will definitely recommend.

Also, the retrofit harness is incredibly easy to install and works like a charm. No splicing needed. Plug'n'Play.

Just had Alex code my car, and it's worth every penny! He takes the time to make sure it's exactly what you want, works to make sure the set-up process is easy, and also informs you of features you might have requested, but didn't know the drawbacks of those features.

Could you learn to code? maybe, but it would take quite a long time and then the not knowing if you coded it right is another drawback.

Get it coded professionally by Alex in under 30 minutes! Spend more time @ WOT.

Thanks Alex!

Can you remote code? I'm in Orlando! I have the cable and everything. Just want the coding done. I'm not afraid to do it... Just not sure if I want to try and tackle it. LOL.

Just met up with Alex. As everyone else says. Cool guy, knows his stuff. Worked with me to meet up with me late in the evening. Hands down the go-to guy for coding.

Thanks again Alex.

Not quite, but there were a couple other things not on the list like ASD and Rear Fog Lights that I added. I happen to hate the seat sliding feature because when there's a car seat back there it can lead to problems. Also, I don't have the LEDs. But loving the folding mirrors, DVD in motion, TPM numbers, and removal of all the warning garbage.

my daughter sits behind me (forward facing in a booster) and I'm a typical height for a filipino adult and don't have my "gangsta' lean" when driving so luckily it's not a problem for me or my daughter..only slides a few inches back...

Had my car coded by Alex today. Great guy. Super fast and professional. Would recommend him to anyone to regain those previously locked to US car features on your car.

Got my car and my friends' 335i remote coded by Alex last week. Straight up dude and work is flawless. Everything works without a glitch. Highly recommend his services to anyone looking to get coded.
