INSTALLATION DIFFICULTY: 2/5
Basic Installation - Simple Tools, No Special Knowledge Required
You are probably already aware of how easy it is to break into a BMW through the low-security locking mechanism put in the door handle. The only way to truly secure your BMW is by removing access to the keyhole by using the exclusive BIMMIAN painted keyhole cover.
This modification completely covers the locking mechanism on the door, removing the temptation for thieves to use the well-known method to exploit the door lock found on most BMWs.
With this modification the key-less entry is used to lock/unlock the car doors... but don't worry about battery life and getting locked out of your car... BMW keys automatically recharge themselves while they are in the ignition.
Not only does this replacement part increase the security of your vehicle, it improves the look of the side of your vehicle, giving you consistent-looking door handles all-around.
This replacement panel is easily installed and is shipped to you already painted in the color of your BMW.
Most of our customers purchase a keyhole cover after their vehicle has been broken in to. Don't wait to be a victim! Add this inexpensive security feature to your vehicle to help prevent future break-ins.
The result looks clean and original and you only need to replace your driver side keyhole, as passenger doors do not use keys.
NOTE: Installation of this part in no way guarantees that your car will not be broken into. We accept no liability whatsoever should this unfortunate event happen to your vehicle.
Give Your Vehicle A Cleaner Look While Adding Security.
Each Keyhole Is Perfectly Matched To The Vehicle And Color.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Question: Will the keyhole cover also work for a rear door? The part next to the handle has come off my rear door and I can\'t find an already painted part for it.
Answer: Yes, it will!
If you want it for the rear DRIVERS door, order the keyhole cover for LHD E46. if you want it for the PASSENGERS rear (or front) door, please order it for RHD E46.
Question: Will this work with the convenience touch entry?
Answer: Yes, this will work with the comfort access feature.
Question: So it's only one cover per purchase? If I want one for driver's side and one for passenger side of my 2003 M3 Vert, I'd have to buy the LHD one and the RHD one?
Answer: Yes, these are sold individually and correct, you would need to purchase one of each. I hope this helps.
