Is this for your '93? If it is, than there are no special requirements for this key - the electronically coded key was not introduced on the 525 until the '95 model year. The local hardware store can make a copy of this key as long as he has the blank. Note: hardware store blanks are brass, not steel like the OEM keys, so they tend to deform (twist) a little with use.



I called the stealer - they want $60. Anyone know of an alternative? I'm assuming the local hardware store can't make a copy.

Thanks,
James B
