Automotive Keys 1997-2005 Lexus - Transponder Key - Short Blade Vancouver

Some Lexus models of this era use a noticeably stubbier blade than the standard key, and owners who try a full-length key from another listing find it will not seat in the ignition properly. This listing is the short-blade version: a chipped Lexus key with a compact blade, no remote buttons. If you are unsure which you have, measure. Put your old key beside a typical Toyota key; the short-blade version stops well short of it. The keyway is different too, so there is no trimming a long blade down to fit. When in doubt, ask us to confirm for your trim/year, or simply bring the key in. We cut the new blade on our code machine, so it can be made from your lock code even if the original is missing. The transponder then has to be registered to the car, which is done with the vehicle on site, either at our Macdonald St counter or on a mobile visit, and we will need to see your registration and photo ID. These keys often reach us with a split head or a chip that rattles inside. Replacing it while one key still works keeps the job simple; if it has already failed and there is no spare, we can still get you running.
