MD13 494 Report post Posted August 9, 2011 Hey quick (probably stupid) question... Other than the obvious, it's a lock of some sort, what is this and why would anyone add it? It's on my 87 e30 M325i. Cheers for any helpful replies in advance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MD13 494 Report post Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) Yeah only on the drivers door. Unfortunately it didn't come with a key so I don't know if it functions as an alarm or an immobiliser or doesn't function at all... Just wondered if anyone knew for sure as google was coming up short. Edited August 9, 2011 by MD13 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
