Default Key Question....

I've done a search but have not found specifilly the answer I need.

I just bought a 93 LS400. The only key I got with the car will only unlock the passanger door and work the ignition. I assume this is the valet key. Am I correct?

Is the "master" key the one I need to work everything? Is there any place other than a dealer to get a master key?

How do I know which remote will work....since I do not have the original remote or the FCC IC?

Yea, that's what I was thinking. Just to make sure, what does the valet key work... Just the driver's door and the ignition?

How hard is it to remove the driver's door lock cylinder? Can it be repaired, or does it have to be replaced. I would assume replacment would have to come from the dealer?
