So it would still be worth buying at the right price and getting it unlocked ?
I thought the immobiliser was separate , being part of the ignition barrel so it wouldn't matter what ecu you had in there ?
Slightly off topic , would a 172 ecu be ok in a 182 ? Could it be mapped to a grp n...
This is a pic of what mine are like . They have a letter " M " stamped on the side , so i'm assuming if you wanted a spare key you would have to quote this letter .
Sorry about the crap pic , i borrowed it off ebay .

I had a stealth stainless cat back on my 172 , nice sound as you choose the back box you like the best . £270 fabricated and fitted , took em 90 mins and i was away . Can't fault em myself , plus a lifetime warranty with em .
Did the locking nut look like this ? If so , they have a letter on the side like this one " E " then you can order the same key , obviously if you knew the number .
When you uninstalled the drive in device manager , did you boot it up or did you try to reinstall the drive first ?
Uninstall in device manager then boot it up .

Thats why if you have a little backstreet mobile phone shop its better to go there and have a quiet word ;)
You just pop the gps receiver out of sight...
Get yourself a 512 memory card , about £20 ish , find a local independant mobile phone shop , theres a fair old chance that they will have a dodgy copy of tomtom sat nav and install it for about £10 - £20. Theres one local to me , with a 16 channel receiver and installed on your own card its £50 .
I'd just go for hammerite black smooth , it'll help protect the caliper from the baked on brake dust , and help make cleaning them and looking good easier .
I got 3 tins off ebay for £17.00
So does having a de cat definitely invalidate your insurance ? Does anybody know this for sure ??
Cos if it does , whats the point of having car insurance at all , if you write it off and they see the de cat , you've lost your insurance money and the cost of the car .
I use one of these Autoglym brushes on the wheels , after a good spray with autoglym engine and machine cleaner , gets the sh*t of nice n easy ;)

Best bet is to put the original wheel bolts back on before you go and get new tyres so they can't overtighten em and f*ck em up , change back to the locking bolts when you get home .
Have a read of this . It says you have a 30 day cooling off period for insurance .

Just read the small print on highways insurance site . It says you 2 can " cancel , 14 days cooling off period , but they will charge £25 ...
