The shift light only activates when a map is on it,and nobody can really sell u a life,if a car is already running a DS map the handset holds the cars original settings and replaces it with upgraded settings,so if they sold a life the original owner would lose the ability to use the program that has been uploaded to ur car,it kinda swaps maps over from the unit to the car,it doesn't just overwrite it

Mine worked as standard before my remap. (I think)

On the DSci Platform on the lap top you can use that for a 2nd car by paying Dreamscience £100 I think. Must be an add on download from the site.

I'm 99% sure the facelift cars had it disabled pal. Only on pre-facelifts will it be acitvited with a map.

There will be plenty of people in the NE willing to take you out for a spin but as far as asking them to sell you a life it's not going to happen.

Get yourself on the owners club for more info on the dreamscience, WELL WORTH the subscription fee.

Mine worked when I uploaded the dreamscience software. Nothing to write home about to be honest.

As previously said, you can only use the handset on one car at a time
