    When ordering components relevant to theft (such as keys, keyed alike, EWS / CAS control units), the customer, the vehicle owner's authorization to purchase must be proven by submitting original vehicle documents and an official photo ID! To do this, upload copies of your vehicle documents and official photo identification (black and white copy). If an FZG key is lost, it is strongly advised to have it deactivated via BMW Service in order to avoid the risk of losing insurance cover due to gross negligence in the event of theft.
