key and imobilizer

i had the same problem with my 1998 boxster, it come with only one key.

i searched a little bit around hand i found that most of the shops could make the key but they did not program the immobilizer.

then i found one that told me that they could do the job, but i had to go there with the car.

so i did, i went over there , they made the key , tryed on the door and it was ok.
after they removed the driver`s seat ( just 6 bolts and about 3 minutes) read the codes in the comfort module , and with a laptop they programed the immobilizer.
in total including cutting the blade it took about 30 minutes and i payed 60€..
it works fine

as i had a key (from a previous 996 carrera that i had) i also went there with the key and for the same job including a new blade a new immobilizer and programing the key to the car they charged me 80€

so i suppose that if you make a few calls maybe you can do the same way.

now i want to open the doors remotely but it seems that i should have the m535 option installed.

my question is: having the key programed and working and the 16 digit bar code of the key transmitter is it possible to install an after market receiver?

thanks for the help you might provide
