Here is a link on Aliexpress. Before I go for the lowest bidder, I always check out their feedback:

Example of Precision: Measure with a Micrometer, mark it with Chalk, and then cut it with an Axe.

I've read odd things about installing their black market version. Some claim you have to rollback your PC date, others say they are in English and already activated but the picture shows german, some need you to run a crack program after installing, some don't say anything.

I'm not sure all whats involved with installing this and actually getting it to work - it certainly is my preference to HAVE the tool instead of paying someone to just clear my codes.

Any thoughts??

WOW! :shock: those units are down to $150 shipped. GREAT NEWS. I paid $200 for mine 6 mos ago.

Some tips:

-you don't need the latest 2012 vida software. I have 2010B vida and covers all volvo cars 2010 and older.
-the dice unit works, but the KEY is that the vida software has to be installed correctly and running before the dice tool will work.
-buy from somebody that has a good rating.
-you don't need to turn the date back on your pc, BUT you'll need a laptop running winXP pro or win7 pro with at least 2 GIG RAM of memory and a hard drive with free 20 gig of space.

GO FOR IT. you won't regret it, and myself and others can help if you have installation problems
