Are you asking about NCS Expert coding?

HERE's a directory of people who offer the service including myself.

It's definitely worth it, especially if you can find someone to do it for you. There are no warranty issues as all you are doing is enabling hidden factory options. If you mess up and brick the car in the process, then may be a different story but I believe that's pretty hard to do.

If you're thinking about doing it, buy the right cable the first time. I believe you need THIS ONE. I tried an eBay cable first and it did not work. Hundreds of people have tried cheaper cables and they do not work.

Here's the important threads:

Triple O did mine a little over a month ago... Couldn't be happier.. 12 R58, auto up down one touch and key fob windows, rear fog lights activated, video plays whilst car is in motion, euro emergency flashers... No issues:-)

How can I get in contact with him? I need my Mini Cooper to be programmed to be compatible with the new H/K amp.
