This is referring to the standard BMW top box and panniers NOT the police ones.
After two days of attempting to remove the key barrel in a 2nd hand BMW large top box, it seem I have to resort to taking it apart.
The barrel is encased in some sort of plastic case. Attempts to push down the locking pin either externally via the small inspection hole or directly via key hole have failed and I have run out of patience.
The top box lid is open but the base is locked.
I've removed all the screws from inside but I can't lift in inner shell out and I don't know why.
It could be the locking feet or just that I'm not applying enough force.
I managed to strip both panniers and get them working but the top box is killing me.
How do I get the inner shell out?
The handle is in the locked position.
