Subject: airbag reset tool -BB discount
Author: shogun (moderator) : member since March, 2004 : 9784 posts

Maybe some of you remember that months ago I bought some airbag reset tools from Germany, also for oil and service interval reset.

Peake airbag reset tools do not work on our old cars.

Meanwhile I have imported more and they work fine in Japan too so that I can recommend them now.
I sent one out to Paparon last Monday.

I have just got the agreement from the maker in Germany, that we get a BB discount for direct shipment to each individual person also for small orders like 1 piece only.
I get a special discount as I order larger quantities, but he finally agreed to make a special discount for direct orders too, although they have more work on their side for packing/order handling etc..
You can get it for less than the official list price of 49.00 EURO ex Germany. Plus actual shipping cost to your country.

Just mention in your order sheet that you would like to get the special discount agreed with "Shogun". That is roughly 20%.
He accepts Paypal, although that is not mentioned in the online order sheet, also accepted after discussing with him.

Mick in Finland got it already in summer: -quote-
"A friendly guy named Ernst J Zymelka said that i'll get the SIR3 Digital for 75€ including shipping which is 36€. Doing a little math i end up getting the tool for 39€.
Anyway the total price is the same as a reset would cost at the dealer so i am going to go with the Zymexx."

more details.
