I threw mine out when I replaced my 4. The key was a pain in the butt to get on the nut and even worse getting it off.

Lexus dealer wanted $50 for a new key or $40 for shop time if they took the nuts off.

Went to parts store, got new ones that matched the other normal ones, and I had to beat and bang to get my key to work, but eventually got them all off and replaced.

All and all it saved me $32 from the dealer.

Please close this thread. Thanks to Aliga, I took the route through my independent Lexus people. They took the other locks off, much like Luin suggested.

Thanks for eveyone's help. Please close this thread now.
