That is not right. That number is for order software.
And software can be loaded only if DIMs part number is compatible with the car.
That is why I asked for it.
And right DICE clone can be used for programming. That is the one based on the same microcontroler as original.

Both DIMs does not fit your car.

First is for 1999-2000 MY
Second is 2000-2001 MY
They cannot be programmed for your car.

That can be programmed but you need to make adapter because socket is different.
That is 2005 MY DIM.

You can reprogram DIM using official way (paid subscription for VIDA + additional fee for software itself) only if DIM is officially compatible to your car. In your case that is only for DIM from 2004 MY car.
DIMs from 2005 and later cannot be programmed to your car using VIDA.
Pirate version of VIDA does not have ability to load software.

First of all thank you for your response and I want to bother you with any questions if I can afford.
* How do I know that DIM is compatible with my car since he does not have the old Dim ... as I realize just checking VIN.
If you give me a link where I register and pay for vida, I tried but I do not go considering that I reside in Italy. I look only Canada, Portugal, USA.
****** Thank you very much for your help

this is correct - I did this on the mother-in-laws car. Only thing is that it will now display the mileage of the car that it came out of. The CEM will still have the correct mileage although.
