1/95 & later EWS security
US e34s built on or after 1/95 have some sort of EWS secutiry code that works with the key, ECU and a sensor ring around the ignition key opening. I think they do require a coded dealer key to start the car, even though a key cut properly may open the door. Not sure about other countries. Someone correct me if i am wrong.
Good luck.

On ebay there are some blank keys for E34 BMW. But they state they have to be laser cut. What if I will get a copy done by normal grinding, there are lots of people who can do that? Will it work?
