Great to have

If you plan on doing multiple installs this is great to have. Shops will prolly charge you more to flash a bypass than this will cost you. Also if the flash is wrong youll have to make another trip. These flash the higher bupasses that cover more d2d features helping you save time on install. I recommend these to anyone

Easy to use

This works as described, install the software, plug it in, and it works. Couldn't be any easier to use.

Good Investment

Really good tool to have. Just make sure it's a DEI module and not omega or fortin. Only DEI.

must have

If you have to use a bypass module for remote start and or power lock systems and want to use Xpresskit modules then you will need the XKloader2. You'll want this piece to load the lastest or different firmware for the XK modules which you will have to purchase seperate. Easy to use. Cuts down on installation time and wiring.

Great tool

The unit was shipped right away and came exactly as advertised. It is a flexible tool if you plan to either change programming or program future devices for other cars. Programming is super simple and worked first time each time.
It is a good value and I recommend it. Xpresskit is an etremely user friendly group with techs easy to talk to and honest about equipment and limitations. They will usually get you going, even if it takes using outside parts.
Kudos to their customer service that others lack.

Be in control

Pro: Allows you to flash your Bypass module at will without having to go to the shop. Saving money and time. Unit is easy to use (provided you have some basic computing skill like getting on the internet). If you have to make a long trip to a shop that can flash your bypass module or pay at least 30 bucks to get it flash, this is well worth it.

Con: Can't think of any.

Overall: Unit does exactly as it was advertise to do. In my case, it is more hassle and more expensive to get the shop to flash my bypass module than to buy this unit and flash it myself. Plus, I flashed my unit more than once already.
