I wish. All doors and windows are locked.
Would the Lexus dealership be able to make me a new key?

have a locksmith open the doors and try to unlock trunk from drivers seat or be prepared to remove rear seats and climb in that way.

It seems to me like calling a locksmith would be the way to go, but then again there must be a reason that you haven't just because it seems like a no-brainer. Locksmith can be there much faster than going to a dealership and ordering a key.

call a locksmith, then get a spare key made, just in case it happens again

If you've got the locksmith with you, while he's there, have him help you get into your trunk in the first place.

What did you end up doing? Really though 10 days? I know that if you call and give them your vin, they can cut a new key for you, you will have to program it yourself, or pay the fee...

I ordered another key. They had to special order one for me, took a day to arrive. They cut it for me in about 15 minutes because Keyes Lexus Van Nuys has a key cutting machine at the dealership. Some other dealerships need to send the key out to get cut so it may take an extra day, but in total you are looking at a 3 day max wait. So it is faster than BMW, but cheaper? Far from it. A master key (like the original key) is around $300 plus tax (includes programming) and a valet key (will only open doors and turn on the car) is around $150 (including programming). This is what I learned from the whole experience. Price may vary by a few dollars from dealership to dealership, but this is the average. Hope this helped
