Where to buy an uncut key for X5?

So I went to watch the new movie 300 last night and than lost my key...
Im using the other one that came with the car now and I ask the dealer and it cost over 150 dollars for a new key... so I was wondering if I could get a cheaper one somewhere else...

No. You have to go to the dealer.

Just went thru getting a new key myself. My understanding is that you'll have a very hard time getting one anywhere else except dealer. $150 plus tax is about right.

I hope it was worth it....

The dealer will want your car registration or some other proof of ownership.

Do i have to go to the dealer where I got it from or just any BMW dealers?

It was a good movie but not worth 150 dollars...lol

Any BMW dealer should be able to assist. You won't get it right away, the spares for every vehicle are stored somewhere in a central location and will be shipped to the dealer by BMW.

its not the key itself that costs so much, they have to program the key to the car and they charge for that.
