wallet smart key
Hey Guys,
just purchased and RC 350 F-sport, not used to the big bulky key.
has anyone connected one of the credit card keys to their car? i asked my dealer today but their catalog didn't show that there was any available for my vin number.
i found a listing on Ebay that shows it should work, just wondering if it really work or not.
lexus part number = 89904-53511
here is the link to ebay http://r.ebay.com/SWsCHw
Thanks
P.S. i also found it a cheaper on this site

I bet it has to do with either the shipping to Hawaii or the RCs in Hawaii are equiped differently. But, I have contacted that ebay seller in the past and he responds quick and I think he works with a Lexus dealer. You should be fine if you order it from that ebay one as long as you are in the states.

I read that this would work also for the RCF, I know that the ISF had their own unique version of the wallet smart key that has the F logo on it. What i want to know is if lexus has one of those F logo wallet smart keys for the RCF or if the ISF version will work for the RCF.

I checked the ebay link today: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lexus-RC350-...-/111625490861
I think this is really innovative and useful because i also would prefer not to carry a key if I dont have to...
I cant tell by the pictures what size it is tho. Is it as thin as a credit card and will it really fit in a wallet?

I have one, not paired to the car yet, when I go in for my 10,000 oil change next month the dealer will program it for me, they have already told me that it will work without issue as long as I have FCC ID HYQ14CBB
found the info here:
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/rc-...-card-key.html
dealership confirmed it would work and they can program.
I don't use a wallet I use a minimalist card carrier,

I wouldn't put it in a wallet and then sit on the wallet, it does flex pretty easy I would think it would bend and/or snap over time.
