I removed the cylinder all together. But either way, if the cylinder is behind the delete, you'd have to drill out a hole to put your key in. I just completely drilled out the delete to the point where I could just twist off the little metal piece that holds it down and connects to the screw. It was definitely risky, but I had no other choice.

Yea, never again will I do it.

The car cannot be unlocked when it is completely dead. I've gone through this in the past with my e92 335, but luckily it had a keyhole in the trunk and I could crawl through the trunk to pop the hood.
