VAG COM cable in Bay Area for EPL Flash?

If anyone in the SF Bay Area (I'm in San Ramon) has a VAG COM cable they can loan me so I can install my EPL flash I would be very grateful!

I ordered a Flash from EPL last week but apparently they don't have any flashing cables available to send out right now, so I am stuck waiting. Here's a clip of the e-mail they sent to show the kind of cable I need:

"Do you have any friends who own an Audi or VW that have a VAG COM cable? If so, that cable can be used with our Loader to Flash your car."

Well - no, not outside the forum..but I hope one of you can help. I would even give you a deposit for the cable cost so you wouldn't have to worry that I would keep it.

If anyone has this, the sooner I can get it from you the better.
Thanks!

go on vwvortex.com and they have a big vag com forum there as well as threads/lists with people that have them and let others use them for beer lol. you can mee up with one of them wherever there is wifi and download you flash. takes ~15 minutes.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try it. in the mean time...does anyone on 6SO have a connect?
I've done everthing I can to get the car where I want it and the flash is the last piece of the puzzle.
Thanks again fellow 6-speeders
