What is the takeup on your
Workshops for Members?
What topics covered
are most in demand?
Workshops can be a
challenge but I find that
hands-on workshops
work better on the whole
than product evenings.
Transponder technology is
current and safe work is always
popular.
It looks as though LASA
plays much emphasis
on the sharing and
dissemination of knowledge
and experience between
its members. We have seen
similar attitudes in America
but in the UK, this sharing
is not common. Do you
think this has something
to do with the size of the
countries in question and
maybe the element of
competition for business?
We also find that not
everybody likes to share
information - especially if
the competition is around;
however, most of our
members will assist in sharing
knowledge with fellow LASA
members.
You set very high ethical
standards for your members:
does this mean that
you screen carefully all
applicants for membership?
How do you do this?
We have a detailed
membership form that all
members must complete. We
also send an existing member
to check out the premises to
make sure the business has the
machines and other equipment
to do the job properly. The
company must also have at
least one qualified locksmith
employed whom we carefully
check for their qualifications
and experience.
Does LASA have a
voice within regional/
national government?
LASA works closely with
PSIRA, the Private Security
Industry Regulatory Authority
in South Africa, as well as
the SETA, the government
Economic Development
Department, which is also a
training institution and funds
training programmes for the
industry.
South Africa is an evolving
Republic with many
challenges ahead. How
do you see your industry
developing in the future in
order to meet these changes?
By keeping up to date with
latest developments in all
kinds of security technology,
ensuring strong emphasis
on training and providing
professional, courteous
customer service. At LASA, we
pride ourselves on being part of
a professional security industry
that upholds high standards
across the board.
ID48 Cloning is
Now Cracked
with Megamos!
»»JFK once said “we
choose to go to the moon...
not because it is easy,
but because it is hard.”
Sit back and think about
all those things that have
been thought of being
impossible since the dawn
of time. Human beings
flying, communicating
with the other side of the
world instantly, landing
on the moon. So many
Impossibilities, but man
has always endeavoured
to overcome them. Even
Captain Kirk told of the SS
Enterprise’s 5 year mission
in the final frontier of
Space.
And today we announce
another frontier, one that
was once thought impossible
to overcome, the ability to
clone the VW ID48 chip.
Many have tried to achieve
this, and all have failed until
now… until Keyline!
Welcome to Megamos
Crypto Cloning Kit from
Keyline, the WORLD’s first
ID48 cloning system, now
available at Tradelocks!
Megamos is an extention
to the brilliant Ultegra
Cloning system that uses
a live internet link to help
calculate the ID48 chip code.
Users can buy the Megamos
from Tradelocks, and link
it to their Ultegra. The

Megamos starter kit comes
with everything that is
required plus a special TKM
cloning head. All the user
needs to do is to add the VW
HU66 Horseshoe to the TKM
head to generate a very high
quality cloned key!
Cloning takes an
average of 10 to 30 minutes
depending on the vehicle
being worked on, and the
Megamos comes with full
step by step instructions.
David Jennings says of
Megamos, “The Megamos
Crypto Cloning Kit simply
proves that – like us - Keyline
is at the forefront. With the
Megamos system, almost
anyone can now clone an
ID48 chip on models up to
around 2003. And the cost of
the ID48 cloned key will cost
the user around £19.50+VAT
which is a remarkable price,
and I am certain almost
everyone involved in cloning
will want to buy it!”
The Megamos is available
from Tradelocks at only
£219+VAT, and Electronic
TKM heads for the ID48
cloning are just £16.99+VAT.
It can clone a number of
cars including Volkswagen,
Skoda, Audi and Seat.
