Card Key for 2008 or earlier IS250?
Does anyome have the smart CARD (the credit card/wallet version) of the smart key for a 2008 or earlier IS250... I went to the dealer and they told me that that the card key isnt compatible with my model year.... I know they sell it on Sewell so please only respond if you HAVE one programmed to your 2008 or earlier IS
thanks!

I got mine through Sewell.
I did have some issues with getting the correct part (because the one they sent me, which was based on my VIN was incorrect). That led to my dealership thinking it might be defective, etc., but eventually corporate stepped in and helped get the situation resolved.

My local dealership was following the normal programming steps for smart cards and couldn't get it to work, so they were convinced it was defective (or not supported since they hadn't tried a smart card on an IS before).
I was left in the middle with no where to turn. Lexus corporate did some research (probably in conjunction with Sewell) and found out it was the wrong part. Sewell did an exchange of the part and my local dealership programmed it.
No problems since then and it's been about 2 years.

Joseph - just received your call...the card key we have on our site works just fine.
Rebs deal was a completely different issue to which it was us that made the mistake. It was a mistake that happened a couple years ago that we find ourselves reading over and over in various threads.
2006 to 2008 IS Smart cards are all the same.
I hope that helps.
