How many key fobs can be programmed?
I was thinking about getting a spare key fob, and am wondering how many different fobs can be programmed to the car. I know on my LS430 there was a limit, something like 1 valet key, and 3 regular keys. I don't recall seeing it mentioned in the manual.
And is there a credit-card style key available for the 460?

Does anyone know what keys come standard. There would be a credit card key and at least one remote operable key but I wonder if more than one remote is included with the delivery of the car.

I purchased a 2010 LS460L and received 2 electronic keys, but not a credit card key.

The limit, I believe, is 5... yes, there is a credit card key: see here.
Of course, your Lexus or Toyota dealer will need to program them.

"Programming may be completed by any Lexus Authorized Dealer or professional locksmith or you may attempt to program your Lexus key yourself with the proper key programming instructions."
Anyone know the procedure for self-programming?

There is no procedure for self-programming, unfortunately and the locksmith cannot do it on the LS460 unless he has Toyota's proprietary Techstream computer (very unlikely.)
I think Sewell's instructions are probably generic. They've said before on here that it does require a dealer... and believe me, it does.
If you have a good relationship with the dealer and/or are bringing it in for something else, they may not charge you at all.
