Thanks for welcoming me! I'm glad I'm here because your advice really helped. I checked the website and found the prices for the new smart access keys. They're a lot lower than I thought. Just to confirm that, I actually called a couple of local dealers in my area.
The first dealer I called, Lexus of Concord, they quoted me $295.00! Wow, that's more than double the amount on lexus-parts.com. I don't think I'll be doing my maintenance or any other service over in Concord.
The second dealer I called, Lexus of Serramonte, quoted a lot more down to earth price, which is comparable with lexus-parts.com. However, they quoted me on the OEM Lexus Electrical Key Sub Transmitter, part #89995-50240-RK. When I asked if this is a master smart key, they said yes.
Then I emailed lexus-parts.com and asked them which is the master key, and they told me it's part number 89994-50241-RK. It's about $20.00 more than the one quoted to me by Serramonte. Lexus-parts.com does have both part numbers as well.
So, my question is, which is the right part number? I'm looking for the master smart key, not the valet smart key.
What's the difference between the two of them?
Any input from anybody who knows this would be appreciated.
Thanks!
