just wanted to let you guys know to pick up some extra remote batteries. i ended up locking my key in my car today. trust me, its not impossible to lock your smartkey in the car. my battery in one of my remotes died and it allowed me to lock the key in the car. luckily i was at home and grabbed the other remote and got it out. i tried it again and again and it will lock the remote if the battery is dead or dying.
for reference the battery for the remote is a CR1632. It was a PITA for me to find a replacement. I tried several stores wal-mart, tweeter, circuit city, target, radio shack and the battery could not be found in stock. I ended up finding a specialty battery store that had it. im sure the dealer has them, but my dealer is out of the way.

I posted a thread similar to this when my key fob battery died an early death shortly after picking up the car. Lots of good info in the thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=202623
