I ended up having CP removed and appconnect added remotely. Much cheaper than buying the appconnect key and going to the dealer and paying for labor. I ended up buying the VAS5054 with OKI chip to have it all done remotely. If anyone needs the VAS5054 for the conversion, I'm willing to sell it for cheaper than what you can find online. Just PM me.
Can you outline exactly what you bought (new / used), hardware-wise, as well as what software mods (purchased, coding, what software tools, etc.) you did?
(Cost, too, if you don't mind.)
I was going to go with the hacked unit, but then started hearing people having issues (e.g., random shut-offs) with the ones from APG. So, now back at looking at doing getting MIB2 the pseudo-legit way.
