TAMEDV8 Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Hey fellow members, Need your help input on this dilemma please. I have a 96 Lexus LS400 with the old key and a fob remote. I was hoping to get a newer model key with the built in remote, and have it cut to use with my 96 LS400. NOWWWW... Is it even possible? If I buy a new key from Lexus, can I program its remote with my fob remote and have the key cut so it'll work with my car? Arggh... hope I am making sense. Please provide any info you can. Regards, -AM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
