Sewell Lexus, sewellpartsonline.com - Tested and Approved - Lexus SMART Card
The Lexus SMART card available from the new LS460 has now been tested and confirmed to work with all Lexus models using the SMART Access key fob or specifically the 2006-2008 IS250/350, 2006-2008 GS300/350/430/450h and the 2007-2008 ES350. Use promo code 909RK to receive the SMART card for only ____. Click the image below for details.
Special pricing can be received by using 909RK as your promo code during the checkout process.
Important - while the SMART card offers a very fancy and convenient method of gaining entry into your Lexus, the emergency entry key associated with the SMART card is not available and cannot be used with the aforementioned models. In other words, should the battery become compromised, then no alternative entry can be made to your vehicle until the battery (CR2412) can be replaced.
Should anyone have any questions or comments regarding the following, we welcome your thoughts. Please contact us during normal business hours, 7 to 7 CST, 888.909.6633.

I am VERY interested in this. I have 3 questions though.
1. Will the Smart Card have full functionality as my original smart key fob?
2. Are there any buttons (lock, unlock, trunk, panic) on the Smart Card?
3. How hard is it to program the Smart Card. Can I do it myself or do I have to take it to the dealership?

The Lexus SMART card appears to be just a black plastic card - the size of a credit card. On one end, is the battery to which can be replaced very easily. On the other end is where the would-be wallet key would be placed - though for all non-LS models, the key would not apply. There are no buttons or other type of gadgetry that gives further functionality beyond giving the ability for keyless entry.
The SMART card would be the alternative to carrying your existing key fob - just an option.

Difference between this offer and the LS smart key offer
What's the difference between this part and the LS460 part? 89904-50640-RK vs 89904-50640-LSKIT? Other than the lower price?

I believe this offer comes only with the Smart Card and the other on (groupbuy) comes with both the Smart Card and mechanical key. correct me if Im wrong messenger of Sewell.

For the not LS460 models, the key does not apply therefore not needed and subsequently a lesser price.
In a manner of speaking, yes there will be a "hole" or a vacancy on the end to which the alleged key would reside. We felt since the card is to be used discretely in a purse or wallet, the vacancy would not be a concern.

Any possibility this would work on the SmartAccess for the 2004 - 2006 LS430?

To program a key, your Lexus must be available at the time of programming, therefore upon receipt of the SMART card or any other remote key for that matter must be programmed to your Lexus for the key to properly function. The programming of the SMART card is the same as programming your current key fob.

From what I've read on the GS and LS forums, it costs ~$50 to program at any Lexus dealership. I don't think they will do it for free, but you can try. They shouldn't give you any trouble about it. It should be the same process as programming the original key fob.
