Do you accept gm pass-key iii+ / modern vats delete (2006-2015) modules from Alabama?

Is there a gm pass-key iii+ / modern vats delete (2006-2015) shop in Birmingham I should use instead?
Most Birmingham shops don't keep the bench equipment for gm pass-key iii+ / modern vats delete (2006-2015) — they'd forward the module to a specialist anyway, which adds a markup and a middleman. Going direct to us is usually faster and cheaper. Cross-region — roughly 2 days each way for a quick round-trip.
Does Alabama vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Alabama has no mandatory statewide periodic vehicle safety or emissions inspection program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Alabama and federal requirements.
Why do you need the ECM label before I order?
Support depends on the controller AND the operating system in it. E39/E39A applications are well documented; other Global A controllers vary by calibration. Confirming from the label + VIN first means you never pay for a job we can't deliver.
Do I need to send keys or the BCM?
No — ship the ECM only. After the delete the engine does not check key authorization, so any key that mechanically works the ignition will start it. Existing keys keep working.
