Default So, I've got this Valet key that isn't mine!!!!

I guess it's a valet key. I wouldn't know since I never got one with my car!

I was thinking that if I posted the key number here, that someone might have a way to figure out whose it is and maybe we can get it back to them....


It's a thin black piece of hard plastic, about the size and shape of a credit card. The key fits in a cut-out right in the middle. It will go into my ignition but won't start the car. (ditto the door)

i edited out the number, just in case someone use it for illegal purposes

anyway, if i were you i would just call up lexus corporate and let them know about the situation. i am sure they will be able to contact the owner much easier if needed

BA_GS400, that is very nice of you to try to return the key to its owner.

Are you sure its not yours? I have one just like that and they are only met to open the doors incase you forgot your keys inside the car.

BTW Where did you find it?
