I just added the credit card for my 2020 RC F. It was no issue. I'm still trying to get a mechanical key cut for it.
Awesome! I am buying one here in a month or so. Did you get the one that we have talked about in this thread? Also your's has the F letter on the battery door right?

I ordered off ebay from a, dealer in AZ. I can send info tomorrow. With specific part numbers.
Ran into a thread over at the RC section and some have claimed that the smart key card works on the RCF.
Part number is Lexus Part No.: 89904-24020
According to LexusPartsNow.com, it is a fit, although my dealer is stating that the RCF does not have a smart card option.
Hey, so I'm trying to get a card key for my 2015 RC-F but I'm a similar experience to you where I'm having dealers tell me that my car is not compatible... do you know by chance If card key 89904-24020 will work for all Lexus RC-F '15? (In US btw).

scroll up a few posts, I've given the correct part numbers for the RCF.

So that's where my confusion is, OP mentioned his car key number is 89904 - 24020 for his RC-F and in your post you mentioned 89904 - 24021, my dealer states no car key works for my RC-F, so I'm just trying to make sure I buy the one that would be compatible.

The original post is also a few years old. 89904-24021 supercedes the "old" 24020 part number. Your dealer sounds lazy, like they tried to search "card key" and came up short. The key is technically called "Keyless Entry Transmitter" so easy to miss if they're not looking it up correctly.

I ditto the comment that your dealer is lazy. I ordered the 89904-24020 part from a dealer in AZ (on ebay). It did not come with the mechanical key. I ordered the mechanical key as well. I took both to my local locksmith. The proximity card was easily added to my car. They choked on the laser cut of the key. The mechanical key just didn't work.
Bottom line. Talk to your local locksmiths. See if they can add the proximity card for you (for a fee I'm sure). My local lexus dealer works with a roving locksmith for all their key needs, but the service lead at my shop said, if it is genuine lexus part, he would program the car for me (again for a fee). FYI - the roving locksmith that works with dealer wouldn't do the proximity card because they couldn't get a card from any of their suppliers. He (understandably) didn't want to take any risk with a part of unknown source.
Supposedly, the RC F will allow for up to SIX proximity "keys". I know 4 work (3 fobs and a card).
