Here is the correct key blank for Givi topcase

Hi everyone,
I have a Givi V46 Monokey topcase which I needed a spare key for. I did some research on the web and found a couple of suggestions for the correct key blank. I just got back from the lock shop and I can vouch for one of them because it works for my case. It is an ILCO B59 X162. This is in the US, so I hope they use the same key blanks in the UK.

Keep the rubber side down!

Thanks I need an extra key myself. I tried my locksmith but he couldn't get one to work. Maybe with some info he can.

Take a look for a complete cylinder...

The cylinders are cheap, i think it is more expensive to buy a blank key and copy the original one to the blank one...

I'm fairly certain that if the key-cutter has state-of-the-art computerised key-cutting equipment, dialling in a US number will throw up the equivilant number for other countries; a friend of mine in London has such equipment.

When I needed a replacement lock from GIVI they charged me $7+shipping
for the entire lock with two keys.

Thats what i mean
I don't know your local prices, but i paid ~10€ for a replacement lock (incl shipping) and i think i have to pay minimum 5€ for the key-cutting without the blank key...
And if the new lock will cost a little bit more than the blank key & cutting it is anyway the better way in my opinion because you have a new lock without the risk of soon damage...

Has anyone ordered a spare key keyed for your lock directly from GIVI for the top case?

I received one key for my Givi E45 monokey case on the purchase of my 2002 SW a few years back. I ordered 2 extra key blanks from Givi for $15 plus postage and then took them to a local locksmith to be cut. The locksmith took one look at the blank, picked up one of his Fiat blanks from his wall and went out to my scoot - it turns out that for $1 I could have had another key without the red plastic cover - live and learn!!

My Honda dealer wanted $15. for my Swing,I said I can get 2 for $9. I payed $10. with tax.

I got 2 spare keys cut for my Givi E52 locally for a fiver, and if I wanted a replacement Givi lock and 2 keys there's plenty for sale on eBay.

Nip to your nearest key cutter & ask him to use automotive blank ... BT2 ... worked for me

Nip to your nearest key cutter and ask him if he has a blank to match your key as not ever Givi Top Box seems to use the exact same blank - IMHO. Or, buy a key set on ebay - if you can't get what you want from your key cutter.

The suggested ILCO B59 X162 will work if cut with due care. I ordered a pair of blanks from ILCO (minimum buy) and the first one made was a fail. The locksmith told me it was the wrong blank. I took the other blank to another locksmith and showed him what had been done wrong. This time the key worked perfectly. Glad I had two blanks!
