okay so i lost both of my keys (long drunken night) and i finally got a new one. does anyone know how to get into the car? prior to sliding a rod through the door and pressing the unlock button i tried going in through the trunk. My car doesnt have the folding rear seats. The alarm went off so im guessing the security mustve activated so now i cant unlock it by pressing the unlock button inside the car. Oh yea I eliminated the keyhole on the driver door of the car so thats out of the question. PLEASE HELP ME! im about to break one of my windows if i cant get in.

Sounds like your out of options. As far as I know the car won't start if the alarm is on. Smashing the window would make the alarm go off so looks like a tow to me...

There is a third spare key, a small black plastic one.

I hope you find it.

Eliminated the keyhole? Are you still drunk?

Looks like your options are a BMW dealer, a locksmith or a brick.

personally, I like the brick idea (hey if you were drunk enough to lose both keys a brick sounds like an option to you too)

Stop! Do not break your window. BMW Assist can unlock your car remotely. The phone numbers that I have for them are 888-333-6118 or 800-332-4269.
