Changing the battery on the 98-00 3 button key is really easy.
-Remove 1 screw on the back of the key to open the cover
-Remove 2 screws to access the battery
-Swap battery
-Put everything back together

Depends on what kind of Lexus dealer you have. My Lexus dealer will install the key battery for free. I own two Lexus if that makes a difference and they do all the service on both.
Regardless, you can purchase a battery for less than $4.00 at Target or elsewhere and install it yourself.
