Re: Keys locked in '92 E36

Evan,
Here's an easier solution, if noone else has posted one yet (it may take 
longer to do though).  
Get your vin number and proof of ownership (if you don't have the title call 
the dealer and see what else will work), then go over to the dealer and have 
them get you a new key.  They may have to order the key, or they may be able to 
give you the key code.  If you can get the key code, then you can just have a 
locksmith cut you a new key.  
You may have to call around for a couple locksmiths.  Many don't have the 
tools to cut that funky key, but some do.  If I'm wrong, and locksmiths can't do 
it, you'll have to wait for the dealer to order you one.  Either way, give 
them a call.  
This is also much safer than having some idiot with a slimjim try to get in 
there.
Good luck,
Jake
