As I was told, no wires are cut, just tapped. Big difference. If an Igla fails, your car will just start as if you didn't have an Igla in it, that's all.
The wider discussion and searching for youtube threads imply there are different capabilities depending on who installed it - however, with how IGLA works, is it not true that even if IGLA allowed a key to be cloned/programmed/added (presuming you meant the GM key), that key would be the same as the legit owner's key and still not start the car without the passcode. . . ?
