Default Lost keys.....SMH

ok.... so 7 years ago, one key was lost and I've been using my spare.... so yesterday, the spare broke off of my key chain somehow, and I have no keys ( FOB ) for my car....

Does anyone know a cost effective connection to get replacement FOB's for this car,.... that Lexus will reprogram without the "we don't do 3rd party" BS??

I'm in Houston.

Call a locksmith that specializes in programming key fobs. Or try calling the dealer, im sure you can get it down for less then $200

On swell, they are asking 161.89 for the FOB itself. But sign up with your club lexus name you will get a discount, and it came to 132.05, and the master key cut to VIN is 55.69 with the discount. Hope this helps!

That truly sucks, I would follow ksan's route..... That's a sure-fire way to approach this. It's from Sewell LEXUS too (a dealership).
