Just a little service annoucement. Garret and I have spent about 200 hours learning how to program these vehicles. Weve both had people demand discounts saying that $1000 is too much money for features I can guarantee you the dealerships will never ever activate. If the dealership would turn on these features it destroys the entire dealership and JLR business model of getting you to upgrade and buy a new vehicle to get the new features. So $1000 is a very fair price to get what newer vehicles have with cutting edge technology.

What is also interesting are defender owners who go to independent shops and have them contact us wanting to do activations for free. If your shop will venmo me $1000 then I'm happy to do the activations as long as they have the $3,000 to $5,000 in tools needed to do the activations and no we wont share our secret sauce, we will try the activations over the air with no guarantees and no refunds.

Thank you!
