i tried googling for a bit to make my own as well but couldn't ever sort it out.Every junkyard I contact either has no idea what a immo coil is or they want to sell the whole lock tumbler.
If I knew what gauge and length wire to wrap, I would make my own coil and stick a chip inside.
I searched around a bit for an immo coil also and didn't have any luck. I think that people who are parting out cars tend to sell the locks and keys as a set and unfortunately the immo coil is part of the ignition lock.Every junkyard I contact either has no idea what a immo coil is or they want to sell the whole lock tumbler.

You still have to adopt the key to cluster and that is the hardest part on 99.5.I searched around a bit for an immo coil also and didn't have any luck. I think that people who are parting out cars tend to sell the locks and keys as a set and unfortunately the immo coil is part of the ignition lock.
However while I was searching around for a coil, I discovered the Directed 556UW immo bypass module. It's a little black box containing an immo coil that you mount a spare key inside of. It's meant as a remote-start solution for cars that use an immobilizer but I think the coil might be usable instead of a factory immo coil when adapting a newer cluster to a 99.5 car.
I bought an open-box one for $8 and will give a try someday when I have time. Here's one place that sells them:

NOPE,Hey all!
I'm hoping you guys can help me... the knowledge of these forums is extolled often.
So I have an Immo-III (2004 Jetta GLS, US) and an Immo-II FIS cluster (1J5 920 842). I was told it was Immo-III upon sale, but obviously it isn't. Ideally I want to be able to use it somehow so I'm not stuck trying to resell it for less.
Is there anything that could possibly be done here to get it working? Immobilizer delete? Custom changes to the cluster EEPROM itself? I don't want to haveeeee to spend any more money, but if something could be done cheapyl... I may consider it.
TIA.
Understood!NOPE,
There is to many other controllers like CCM , radio, ECU can not work properly with Immo 2 cluster in IMMo3 system.
Only way is to get Immo 3 cluster , make sure when you buying that 9th number is 6 or 7.
Example 1J5 920 946 C
Well, a year later I finally had time.I bought an open-box one for $8 and will give a try someday when I have time.
