I bought some keys for my BMW from this guy http://motokeys.ecrater.com/, He has a BMW of his own, maybe calling him will help you find some keys.

Thanks Steve.
I checked mine and one key fits both sides. It's an 062, so no help there.
I had thought if someone had the same number, we could get some spares cut and send them over.
I know about the 710 thing. I have a good tale on "spark-plug" gap too.

It's difficult finding a blank off the shelf that matches these pannier keys.
I did manage to find one once and it was close but not close enough.

That blank is an Edmond C10.It would open a used lock with some "technique" but not a new one. Maybe some judicious use of a small file to have it more like the original would help?

I always thought beer trumped keys, or was that rock and scissors?
