Can I Replace Transponder Key/ignition W/ Regular Ignition?
1 Comment | Posted by admin in Transponder
I’m considering purchasing a salvage 2007 BMW 325i. The car would NOT come keys. So as I understand it, I can POSSIBLY get BMW to create a new set of transponder keys with the VIN information (with considerable hassle and expense).
Can I just get the ignition (?)/starter(?)/keys(?) with a regular old-style, non-computerchipped components?
Which method would be cheaper/easier?

6 Comments | Posted by admin in Lock
I accidently (i promise) slammed my sliding glass door while it was locked (but opened) and now when i try to lock it while its closed the lock just falls down. Can I replace just the parts that lock it or am I looking at a whole new door? If so, how much do doors cost?

Whats A Normal Cost For A Locksmith To Open Your Door And Replace Your Lock?
11 Comments | Posted by admin in Locksmith
At about 7pm I got locked out of my apartment. I called a locksmith and asked how much they cost. They said $75. The guy came, said it was a 5 pin lock, he couldnt pick it, and hed have to drill and open it, and replace it. In total, he charged me $600. The door wasnt even truly locked– I hadnt turned ther key. It just locks automitcally behind me. Ithink it could be jimmied with a credit card, but he said he couldnt, there wasnt enough space. Did I get ripped off?
I want to replace the door locks for my home. Any ideas on which locksmith service in San Diego I should use to do this?
