It does matter what tunes were in the box as the same box does all our cars.

The box first must return the original car back to the stock tune and then returned to a tuner or to CAPA to be unlocked. You will probably be charged for this unlocking so factor this into the cost of buying the 2nd hand box and there are some good prices out there at the momment.

A few people advertised that their 2nd hand boxes are unlocked, they say this because they have returned the car back to the stock tune. This [b]does not unlock the box, but is the first step to getting a box unlocked.

do you know how much they charge roughly?

Don't know for sure but have heard os stories of $130 but that includes reloading generic tunes. I would expect they may do it for free if you were getting a custom tune at the same time.
