Unhappy Lexus Flat Key for LS 430

Hello Everybody

I noticed my Ls430 doesn't have the smart flat key which comes inside the manual and the big black leather book i noticed some of my friend's they have the flat key.

Any idea where i could find one i looked at ebay but i didn't find what i am looking for is it possiable that i can find it at any lexus dealer in USA ? i know its not very important since i have two smart keys however, i like to have everything available in my LS in case if i decided to sell it in the future.

Any information would be highly appreciated

Thanks

That key will not start the car. If you have the smart key you will need this:
http://lexus.sewellparts.com/accesso...2004/2712.html
and this:
http://lexus.sewellparts.com/accesso...2004/2744.html
And part #89795-50060 I believe. It's the card the other 2 pieces go in.

thanks for the tips at the moment i want to buy what is missing i guess the flat key and the key bar if i am not mistaken are standard by the factory which they kept it inside the glove compartment in case any owner want to use it for emergency.

It all depends on if you have the smart key system. If you do, use my links. If you don't use Hilo's.

Since the Sewell parts website is out of business how would I go about getting a Wallet key? My 2005 LS has the smart key system and when I bought a month ago I received two smart keys but no valet key nor a wallet key.
I'm not interested in the valet key but the wallet key might come in handy.
Or with the smart key system what is the chance I could lock myself out of the car?

if you have to leave your car anywhere, like for service or valet parking, it is better to NOT leave them with your smart key. I usually leave the valet key in my travel shave kit in case I lose my key on vacation. I only have 1 smart key and 1 valet key. someday I will get another smart key, but they are quite expensive. I paid over $300 for a smart key when I discovered that the only key the car had when I bought it was a valet key. smart key from dealer $195 programming and cutting key $110.

So the valet key should be cheaper to get?

should be, but I bet it is not. I don't think I would buy a valet key. sometimes on ebay they sell valet keys as smart keys, be very careful if you buy from them.
