Do you accept mercedes / chrysler egs tcm clone modules from California?

Is there a mercedes / chrysler egs tcm clone shop in Los Angeles I should use instead?
Most Los Angeles shops don't keep the bench equipment for mercedes / chrysler egs tcm clone — 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-country west — about 2-3 days each way.
Does California vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
California requires a biennial Smog Check emissions inspection in most counties through the BAR program. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all California and federal requirements.
Will I need anything done at the car after install?
On most jobs the cloned EGS drops in and drives. Some installs benefit from a short shift-adaptation drive cycle so the transmission relearns your driving and shifts settle in, and on certain applications a scan-tool adaptation reset helps. We tell you up front whether your job is likely to want that step, so there are no surprises.
Does the immobilizer or drive-authorization stay intact?
Yes. On FBS-linked Mercedes the EGS is tied into drive authorization, and cloning carries that relationship across so the car starts and shifts normally — your keys keep working. This is not a delete or a security bypass, which is why proof of ownership is required before any drive-authorization work begins.
