Bought a new Vario box with lock kit which consists of two barrels, 6 size 1 leaves, 8 size 2 and only 2 size 3. spent over an hour trying to re-key but now realised that each barrel requires 4 size 3
Does anyone know if dealers stock individual replacement leaves as I need 6 more size 3
German efficiency or me being stupid?
 
Your local friendly dealer will have loads of any you want, they should be able to help. I would be very surprised if they charged you.
 
I've just had the same problem , keying top box & 2 panniers, I needed 4 off no 2 tumblers for each lock but the last packet I opened only had 2 ! I bought the boxes from Germany so thought that was a lost cause in getting it sorted but hats off to my local bmw dealer Cotswold who are sending me foc the other 2 . I'm not sure whether I am missing some tumblers or whether it was different combination of tumblers in the last packet . I had 30 tumblers altogether , Cotswold seems to think there should 12 in each packet so I am a lot short . Maybe that is why the label says only to be fitted by BMW cos they will have some spares !
 
I recently bought a Vario Top Box from this site. Today I went into my local dealer (Williams of M'cr) and they re-coded the lock for me free of charge. Take a bow "sadjim" from this website! he had a boxful of spare leaves for the locks
