Paperclip? Will only do engine ECU though.

Not sure what systems the original Tech1 talked to on the 95 cars.
Opelscanner will do the job but is a bit OTT for your needs.

"My Naff Code Reader" claims to be able to talk to 95 MY Omegas but I've never tried it.

"My Naff Code Reader" claims a lot of things, but doesn't entirely live up to its promises sadly.  Amd be particularly careful around key programming and ncdc pairing - it does make a mess of it, sometimes a t2 can fix, sometimes not.

And at £600, bloody waaayyyy overpriced

allobdtool is really cheap on those com units, and the one i have ordered was working great:)
But for immo coding i would not try them. expencive thing to mess with...
Remember nearly all those 3rd party interfaces comes from china. some are sold for 100$ some for 600$ they really cost under 10$ to make since its a chip and a cable. its the sw in your computer that does the work:)

Sorry for not posting the link, think its against forum rules. pm me if interested...
