95 ES300's came with a built in remote in the key, did they not?? single button on the side??
a locksmith can make you a new key, however, the best ones are ordered from the dealer... some dealers make the keys there themselves...

My friend's '99 ES300 has the electronics on a separate fob. I don't think the ES300 went to an integrated remote in the key until the 2002 model year. I recently purchased a remote control fob for my friend with the '99 ES300, with programming instructions, on eBay for less than $50.
I'd buy an appropriate OEM Lexus key blank on eBay, after you find a local locksmith that can duplicate Lexus keys. I've read on the CL forums that Lexus uses Sidewinder keys.
Another possible route is to try some of the Lexus dealers who sponsor this forum (and discount). They should be able to produce a duplicate key from the vehicle number.
