Your missing the transponder and chip from the donor car, the car WILL NOT work unless you get these from the donor car.

Unless... you go to Vauxhall and get a blank ECU which will cost you £££

BTW, the chip is inside the donor cars key, its about a centimetre long and looks like a magnet.

Yes...an imobiliser cuts off the spark, or fuel, or both, hence immobilising the engine. Some cut off power all together

If its a X16XE it will have a immobilser no matter what the bloke says.

Transponder around the ignition barrel and chip inside the key, thats all you need.
