Key fob chip options to make as slim as possible… DIY or exact model # for Lexus smart key appreciated for a ‘19 200! (1 Viewer)

[joeylc200]

Hey y’all,

With all the new home smart locks, Apple Pay and what not I literally only need to carry around like two physical cards plus ID and car key. No need for a garage key, house key or any other keys jangling all over the place!

I bought a wallet with an AirTag holder and it’s really slim and it got me thinking it would be really cool if I could just put the little microchip inside the plastic fob Into something like a case and shove it into my wallet, which I’d be happy to use in my front pocket for a change because of how thing it would be.

Only problem is I don’t want the alarm blaring when I accidentally hit it so it either needs to be disabled or I need some sort of hard case.

How I be willing to buy the Lexus smart key but I know myself I’ll end up buying the wrong one and there’s no returns on them lol seems like there’s two different models for the 2019 LX 570 but maybe I misunderstood that.

But appreciate any help guys! Just wanna have one thing to carry plus my phone no more looking for the keys and wallet routine lol

I have the LX card and happy in that regard. But it looks like you have a different year LC truck. Maybe you post in the part number thread and they can help you.

(Edit: PLEASE include model year, whether it’s a LC or LX, and if possible the build date listed on the VIN tag in the driver’s door jamb.) Hello all, I’m fortunate enough to have access to a system to look up part numbers, and figure having a single place to put all the obscure requests would...

I have a '19 200 and bought/used the LX card key for a while. Toyota programed it for me and cut the physical hidden key for under $100 (plus th eprice of the actual card key). Pretty handy if you don't want to carry your actual FOB.

i saw two options for a 19— does the manufacture date matter?

Looks like the change is for production vehicles before/after Aug 2019. Not sure what the change was, but I don't think it'll make a big difference. I picked mine up from this site:
