a little setback for my 1er... last night my brother broke one of the teeth that holds the key in the ignition lock (left side)
got a quote from the dealer:
ignition lock part $244
labour 1-2hrs at $170/hr most likely 1hr (better than expected lol toyota dealers charge around the same rate)
I'm gonna try to source the part cheaper elsewhere and install it myself but there is quite a lot of trim to remove (centre console, driver footwell). does anyone have the instructions to removing those trims? pm me if you like
the ignition lock part has been changed with the time of facelift so maybe its a different design?

btw i also got a dealer quote on the footwell lamps to retrofit. they are $34 each...
