TB-Subaru3 transponder bypass dealer tool?

Question

Planning on doing a 2015 Subaru WRX STI soon. When you say "dealer tool required" is it the Subaru Dealer or a Fortin Dealer? Also, if it is the Fortin dealer, is this the same tool as the firmware tool or a different one and do you sell it? I saw that I can wrap the wire over the key but I want a cleaner install. Thanks.

Here is the link http://fortin.ca/en/qa/18223/how-to-use-the-key-dcryptor You can wrap a key rather than use the dealer

Answer 2

Ok, I just read another answer and it seems that is a Subaru Dealer tool that is needed. So I will change my question: Can I use an aftermarket transponder box (not Fortin Brand) where I can put the 3rd Subaru key inside the box and has the antenna loop? Will it work with the EvoAll?

Comments

There is another thread about a week old that suggest just doing a key wrap rather than getting the dealer involved.
