??? ??? Do you mean the lock pins/plates in the lock barrels for the BMW top box, or something completely different??

Ah, okay. Sorry I can't help on that one, but have you approached a dealer who might have a gash collection of these pins? I only mention it as my local dealer offers to build and install these locks, and consequently has odd ones left over. Just a thought....

No time to get to dealer in next couple weeks. If can't find one will just miss one out and shove lock in

Dealer will definitely have a pile of them.  Be cautious not to slide the cylinder into the topcase unless you are certain the key will turn it.  They are a bear to remove once they are seated.
