How to Order a Replacement Key for a BMW
by Christina RobertsBMW replacement car keys can be ordered from an authorized BMW service center by the registered owner of the car. For security reasons, the owner must appear in person, with current car registration and identification and the names on all paperwork must match. BMW car keys are laser cut at the factory according to their VIN number and sent to the dealership in about two working days.
