i am really not sure how they can tell by looking at the obdii port if it has changed.. they i suppose can look at the date it may have been altered (software revision etc), but who is to tell you have not had work on that required it to be re-coded!

thereis no way they will know the parameters to check against so i can only assume that is the only real way to guess of an alteration to the mapping. re-chipped might be more obvious though but i am not so sure...

the HID has been mentioned in the past and is the reason i decided to buy 'bright' bulbs instead and they have made a world of difference on their own on my car...
