finally made some progress. after having trouble locating a new DME / EWS / KEY combo, i contacted a "local" BMW key maker. He advised to get a used key and ignition, send him the EWS and used key, and he can cut and program a new key.
sent him the above parts and he was able to cut a key that works with my used ignition. vehicle fired right up, sputtered a little bit, but it ran without issue. scheduled an appointment for a vehicle inspection at state patrol (closest appointment is october), but that will give me a chance to get it cleaned up and a good baseline on maintenance. planning on giving it a good detail this weekend, get it up on the lift and see what it needs. having it fire up gave me some motivation to make some progress on it.

How'd the interior clean-up turn out? Did you find any actual crack or meth? I love the blue color!
