Pretty sweet.I think cutting isthe expensive part. My key got broken a while back, and I ended up paying 120 for a key and to cut it. Not sure about individual price though

I have a similar one for my IS.

I DO NOT recommend this kind. There is a spring that makes the key pop out and only 1 screw to hold the whole thing together. It causes a gap where the key flips out. It works, but just not perfect. ALSO, the transponder is too far away from the chip by the ignition so I have to collapse the key so the transponder is closer to the ignition for it to start.
Also it cost like 13 dollars at my local Lexus dealership to cut the key. Good luck.
