that's right. all you have to do is enter the code from the stock ROM of the car you're flasing to onto your map and it should work.

You have to set your user level to developer in the options, then restart the program.

It is on developer. The immobilizer option shows up when I load one map, but not when I load my stock map. Should it not show up when I load my stock map?

It should load for every map. Set it to developer, quit the program and relaunch.

Developer is only for the program to show other options. Your ROM has every option in there no matter what you have the app set to.

so you dont want to mess with the engine immbolizer code cause if it changes you cant start your car?

also does the 03 models come up as 04 since the ECU stock setting are exactly the same for both years?

Always write down your immobilizer code.
