Oh, I don't know. Maybe he had another credit card. Maybe he had some cash. Maybe he had a friend with money in the car with him. You know, the normal things that normal people have? You might be the 1% that only carries one card on them as a means of money, the Black card, right?

Call your bank and cancel your credit card account number and ask for a new one. Leave the canceled credit card inside of your car's door. It's probably the most easiest way to do this.

Dont rip it off as you need to unplug the power window controls, the handle cable and the light cable.

Check out my BSW speaker upgrade write up for a detailed DIY and pics



would you post me a link here ? your posts are like over 5 pages .. thanks for the comment here tho !!

yea man that's exactly what im concerning about !!

If it were me, I'd just goto a stereo shop and have them remove the panels to retrieve the card for you. I would worry too much about the card getting stuck somewhere and messing up the power windows.

I believe you, as I did something similar a couple of months ago. Went to a sporting event and got my ticket to park. Set it on my dash with the window open, and the wind blew it between the windshield and the dash with only the top 1/4 inch sticking out. Decided I needed it out of there to display properly, and was scratching my head as to how to accomplish that. Decided a golf divot tool I head in my car should work. Next thing I know I dropped the damn thing, so now it's also between the dash and windshield. Finally got the ticket out using a small stick I found on the ground, but the divot tool is still in there. Obviously I'm not taking my dash out to get it, and thought about trying to stick a long thin magnet there to get it (it's made of metal). But haven't tried that yet.

If the car is under warranty, just keep rolling up and down the window until the regulator breaks..take to dealership for warranty and have them get your card while they are in there. Easy. Everyone knows the BMW regulators suck, might as well get a new one.
