Default Smart Key!

I wanted to change my gs to the smart key system like the one the new models use. Does anyone know how complex this procedure is? I called the Lex dealer and im waiting on a phone call, just thought i'd post.

I don't mind shaving the door handels or putting on the newer type door handles. The push button (start) i will get but im not to concerned with that aspect of the procedure plus im not doing this myself.

Yep just got off the phone with lexus. They said it would be many hours because of all the different computers. Its not worth it. I think i just might shave the door handles and put a push button start instead.
