Is there a porsche alarm / immobilizer box clone shop in Charleston I should use instead?
Most Charleston shops don't keep the bench equipment for porsche alarm / immobilizer box 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-region southeast — about 2-3 days each way.
Does South Carolina vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
South Carolina has no 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 South Carolina and federal requirements.
How much is it and how does the mail-in work?
It is $250 flat. After a technician verifies your VIN, your platform, and both module part numbers, you ship the units to Auto Module Lab in Arlington, TX — this is a mail-in bench service, we do not come to the car. We clone on the bench, verify the write, test communication, and ship everything back with tracking. Return shipping is your choice at checkout: Standard $29.95, UPS 2-Day $54.95, or UPS overnight $94.95.
What exactly is the alarm box, and why does it stop my car starting?
It is the alarm and immobilizer control unit fitted to the 996-generation 911 and the 986 Boxster, roughly 1998-2004. On those cars it is the immobilizer authority: it recognises the transponder in your key and authorises the engine control unit to run. If it fails, or if you fit one from another car, the vehicle sees an unauthorised key even when the key itself is perfect, and you get a crank with no start.
