ignition switch needs replace and only have valet key, what are my options
Hello,
I only have a valet key for my 2000 lexus rx300. The ignition switch needs replaced I found out today. I also do not have a master key. So I am aware that I can take my car to local lexus dealer, they can place a new computer and I pay for labor and two keys. They quoted $800 total. My question is I have found a complete set of a computer, ingition, 3 door locks, and the matching master keys for $150.
So my question is can I put those in my lexus and kill two birds with one stone (replace ignition and get master keys working for my car)? Is there programming involved, the set comes from a car with an automatic transmission which matches my car.
Any information will be greatly appreciated!
