The most important thing to check is the shape of the key blade on your existing key. This shape remote head is used with a couple of different key blade profiles.

If you see the photos attached they will show you what this key profile looks like uncut. This HU58P or BM5 key is milled along the outer edges of the key blade.

Some of the models that used this key type are listed below. This is intended as a reference only and you should check the photos carefully to ensure you select the correct key shell for your key type.

Why replace your entire remote key just because the case or shell has broken away from the key blade. Here we offer you a top quality replacement BMW 3 button remote key shell.

As long as your remote control module still works, you can have the blade of this key cut to match your existing key and insert the remote module & transponder chip and you are up and running again.

If you come into our East Victoria Park shop we will be happy to cut the key, swap over your case and test your battery, while you wait. It is always best to have the car present when getting the key cut so it can be properly tested. 

You will notice this key shell does not have the BMW logo as it is a non genuine part.
