Simply smash window (not even needed actualy),

Plug-in unlocked ECU and you're off.

It would be irresponsible to say the least to be selling such ECU's and
many cars have been stolen exactly because of this.

This post is clearly against forum and site rules regarding illegal activities and should be deleted and thread starter (details noted) warned.

Hi sorry to cause you offence but unlocking and ECU isnt illegal, probably not the best way to use an ECU for the reasons you state easy to steal but this is the way they lads want to go on 106's and Saxo's rather than spend the money on proper re configure of ECU but as this seems not possible on 206 its not an issue
If moderators feel I have posted inappropriately would they please let me know

Lee and Harry loks like I will leave the BSI and ECU's to you 2 I dont need a stock pile of bits I an sell the locks for £35 a set the idea with the ECU's was more for conversions, I dont do international postage for the reasons stated above most notable paypal claims its alright selling for a massive mark up overseas but no good when they put in a claim and you end up out of pocket with postage loss aswell
I'll just bin the items when I strip

1) Unlocking an ECU isn't illegal in itself, but pretains to illegal activity which is stealing vehicles.

2) As you are in the trade, I am sure you are 100% aware of the instant abuse of such an ECU weather it is for Saxo, 106 or any other model vehicle. It only takes one such unit falling in the wrong hands to cause many cars dissapear from their owners and end up as spares..

3) You have already been given a possible solution by Mr.BSI which you seemed to have ignored;
"Why not sell as a set ECU/BSI/keys and barels" If you have as many as you say, re-configuring would not be required.

4) If the lads want to go this way, perhaps you might want to consider the actual application they have in-mind.
The 106 is the absolute classic example of a car stolen this way and I humbly recomend you re-evaluate your buisness practices in this respect.

I'm sorry but these are all aspects of this topic which make it more like "Help us steal 206's easily", even if unintended.

@Lee nothing to do here mate, money or otherwise.
