How long does shipping take from New York to your Arlington TX workshop?

Do you accept smart fortwo ecu / module clone modules from New York?
Yes — we receive modules from New York City, Buffalo, Rochester, Albany and the rest of New York regularly. With about 10.5 million registered vehicles statewide, European luxury (BMW, Mercedes, Audi) are the bulk of what we see from New York.
Is there a smart fortwo ecu / module clone shop in New York City I should use instead?
Most New York City shops don't keep the bench equipment for smart fortwo ecu / module 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 northeast — about 3 days each way.
Does New York vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
New York requires an annual combined safety and emissions inspection statewide. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all New York and federal requirements.
Does the immobilizer stay active after cloning?
Yes. Cloning keeps the factory immobilizer fully intact — your existing key keeps working exactly as before. This is not an immo delete or security bypass, and proof of ownership is required before any work begins.
Is Smart the same as a regular Mercedes for programming?
No. Smart is Mercedes-owned but uses its own electronic architecture — it does not use the big-Mercedes FBS drive-authorization system. That's why this is a dedicated Smart Fortwo service rather than being lumped in with our Mercedes ECU work.
