Do you accept subaru biu clone / all-keys-lost modules from District of Columbia?

Is there a subaru biu clone / all-keys-lost shop in Washington DC I should use instead?
Most Washington DC shops don't keep the bench equipment for subaru biu clone / all-keys-lost — 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 District of Columbia vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
The District of Columbia requires a biennial safety and emissions inspection for registered vehicles through the DMV. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all District of Columbia and federal requirements.
What's the difference between all-keys-lost, add-a-key, and cloning?
All-keys-lost resets the BIU's key registers so a fresh key we program becomes valid. Add-a-key uses one working key you still have to authorize a second. Cloning copies your original BIU's data onto a donor unit so a replacement drops in without touching the ECM or combination meter. All three are $250 flat — tell us which you need.
Do you supply the key, or do I send one?
For an all-keys-lost job, ship an uncut blade or transponder in the box — we program it to the BIU but cannot cut a mechanical blade from the VIN alone. For add-a-key, send your working key so we can authorize the new one. A technician confirms the correct transponder type for your exact model before you ship.
