I called Sewell Lexus in Texas and they told me they don't ship out of their area and I would have to contact a local Lexus dealer.

Does anyone know another safe place to purchase these cards new?

Thanks

I answered my own questions and found this page about cross referencing ID's

HYQ14AAB is the FCC ID for 07-09 LS460s, not sure about the 2010s.

.

Are you sure the 2007s have only 1 FCC ID?I looked up the FCC ID you mentioned (HYQ14AAB) and it throws up a 4 button remote.I have 2007 and it has a 3 button remote .

Just curious.

Which button is not on your remote? I have an '07 as well, and my remotes have 4 buttons: lock, unlock, trunk open, and alarm panic. Perhaps the US spec cars are different?

Yes, mine is a UK spec LS 460 'SE-L' in Windsor Blue shade and black interiors (TRIM Spec - LB20) manufactured Spetember 2007.

The panic button is absent in mine.Checked the manual and the CD as well, the representative image shows only 3 buttons - lock/unlock/boot.

Hello all,
I wanted to share recent experience and pricing on key fobs/cards from Park Place Lexus in Dallas, I was in for some other services and got a quote for both and I think it’s excessive considering the amount of time it takes to program and cut a key; it shouldn’t be that expensive but oh well.

That was last July pricing Wallet card key is $495 and has to be ordered and regular fob is $390 programmed.

I managed to get my hand on an OEM Lexus fob same code and bought a blade from Amazon with a case. Now I’m looking to get it cut and programmed.

if any one has a good experience or recommend a lock smith in Dallas/Plano, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks
