Default how to program a newly purchased remote master key for 2001 GS300?

Hi, everyone:

I just purchased a 2001 GS300 yesterday and it only came one set of master key. So i went online and purchased another set of Remote Master key, but it required some type of one-time procedure to program it in order to start the car with it. Does anybody know how to do it? Please help me out!! Thanks much!!

Even though I didn't purchase my car from there, I went to my local lexus dealer and they did it for free.

As far as i know, you have to have Lexus do it. Every key i've had programmed, whether it be lexus, ford, chevy, whatever! it's had to be done at the dealership. Shouldn't cost much if anything at all.

i remember someone did a DIY on how to program master keys but u need to have atleast one. like u said u already have one so just do some searching. all i remmeber was it dealt with putting the "good" master key into the igntion pressing gas something something something and then puttting in the "blank" master key.
