After reading all the threads thought I would check the pins on the top of the box to allow the top-box (trunk) to be locked. The left pin has about 1mm of pin left and the right has about half left.
Fay took the pin to the dealer to get 2 replacement ones to put in but they can't find a part number for it. Went to specialty fasteners but can't find a suitable replacement for it. Two questions - 1. Does anyone know if there are replacement pins and 2. If not, is there anwhere in the US to get suitable replacements.
If it is not possible to get pins I will be getting up BMW HO like a rat up a drain. Why on earth would they not have a replacement part for an item that wears out like this.
