Is there a mercedes elv emulator programming shop in Virginia Beach I should use instead?

How hard is the install?
About 30-60 minutes. The failed ELV pops out after removing the dashboard trim and steering column shroud. The emulator plugs in the same way. We email step-by-step photos with your tracking number.
Will I lose my keys or have to reprogram?
No. The EIS comes back exactly as you sent it — all keys still work. Only the ELV electrical path is changed.
