Lost both CA Key Fobs whole Moving...Effed?!

Long story short, Labor Day weekend my wife and I moved into our new home and I cannot find both my bmw key fobs to my E90 (along with a spare for my other car).

Hoping it doesn't come down to it, but what's required to get/code a new key fob to my car with Comfort Access?

I read about having to disable the other keys to allow a new one to have CA. Am I going to need to get the car towed to the dealership to get this done?

And would I need a brand new fob or could I get a used one online? I really would like CA to work on the key fob.

Thank you!

You'll need to go to a dealer with proof of ownership (title in your name) and you can order one. Should come in a day or two, they have US distribution centers for them.

If you go to a dealer between 300 and 500 don't pay more.

Local bmw dealership wanted $400 for a new fob plus an hour of labor to code for CA (~$165) for a total of $565 for one key.

Found a local guy to program two keys for CA for $380 and delete the old keys from the CAS.
