www.superchips.com???? Someone correct me if I'm wrong (this is from
memory) but isn't this the web site that says the computer module is in
the passenger kick panel? And that you have to send them the computer,
let them butcher it up and then send it back to you? I don't know, but
I'd be VERY cautious dealing with these people, think about it; if they
don't even know the correct location of the computer in the truck do you
think they stand a chance at cracking the Mopar software, which just
about no one has been able to do so far? Makes you wonder how many
Dakota ABS modules they recieve..... the ABS computer is located in the
passenger kick panel.
