It worked great. Just needed a little soap or lubricant to help slide the key in t to the holder. It snapped together good and snug.Before you open the pack, lay it in a place in case you drop the screw lay towel or something white under it as the screw is tiny. I am bad to drop things.Screwdriver the right fit and wedge worked perfect.

Replacement keys at the dealer are $$$. This is the way to go. I have a 2003 Lexus GX470, so not as easy to find as it once was and this deal includes two. Patiently take the guts out of your old fob, insert it into the new one.....(including the actual key)...... Replacements, all brands, (the black part) are not as tough as the originals, so in order to make it last longer, (and not crack), place the tip of your thumb right up against the ignition when you are turning it in the ignition. Anyway, this DIY saves going to a dealer or a locksmith with a certain type of machine plus you get two, so a win, win.

They are not Lexus quality.

NOT OEM (no Toyota logo) BUT FITS LIKE A GLOVE! This was by far the least expensive, most impressive/useful diy “restoration” ever. After 11+ years of normal wear & tear aka drops on concrete etc, my fob wasn’t as responsive to locking/unlocking thus this purchase.Removal was easy, only took 10-15 minutes (OEM “base” holding metal key required prying) to swap out the components. Internal space was FULL of broken plastic bits, interfering with connections.This part always so cheap, I ordered a silicone “sleeve” to protect the key from future drops… I’m clumsy. 😂

The OEM FOB lasted 13 years before breaking apart. This one will probably last just as long. You will pay more for an OEM Toyota branded FOB but it’s not that important to me. Just wanted a key that works. The key sensor was a perfect fit to the new FOB, key fit perfectly, the casing snapped together without having to do any trimming. I used the original fine threaded screw to fasten the key and case together and put the broken part into the zip lock for safe keeping anticipating that a Toyota ‘purist’ will request to see the OEM broken FOB if there were ever a sale. And, just in case this new FOB is inferior material compared to the OEM part, I ordered a spare to keep in the vehicle for the next break 13 years from now. Fast shipping! Very pleased with the merchandise.

TL;DR: doesn’t work. Just go to dealer to get key and it’s all done correctly.If you are like me you have a Lexus and the key has a plastic housing that turns out to be pretty cheap and cracks eventually. Lexus knows it. So I thought I would be smart and buy this case and change it out myself. Maybe it’s the older keys or something but the blade doesn’t easily remove from the housing. I as trying to cut it off and was just going to break it apart but decided not to. When you put the remote in the shell, the buttons don’t protrude out like the original. This does not work.I went to the dealer expected to just just the $150 they quoted me over the phone. In my mode I was thinking “I’m a Lexus owner, we shouldn’t be cheap or go the cheap route.”So I took my snobby attitude to Lexus and asked them about the key and it’s expensive because they cut a whole new key for you, they don’t just replace the plastic shell. Ok, then this isn’t so bad, if the remotes still works then it’s like a new key. They asked me if I wanted an original case for $150 or Kevlar case for $55. This stopped me in my tracks. Isn’t Kevlar that material they use for bullet proof vests? Shouldn’t that be stronger than a plastic case? I asked what is the difference? He said the plastic one is exactly like the original. Will it break again? Yeah, it might eventually. What about the Kevlar one? He said it is made of Kevlar shell so it’s thicker than the fabric used in tires and bullet proof vests but is practically indestructible. Obvious question: why wouldn’t I just take the Kevlar one if it’s 1/3 the price and will never break? He said some people prefer the the original one because it has the Lexus logo it. The Kevlar one doesn’t. The cheap, non-snobby me said I’ll take the Kevlar one.So people this little kit is not the solution to the cheap broken plastic case on your Lexus key. It doesn’t work. Check out the dealers offerings.Pass in this one. Glad I did.

Replacement for my 1999 LS400. My key fob cracked and made the key very loose. Easy to replace and very cheap. It's great that it comes in a pair for my spare.

If I had only known about these a while ago. I had been using a broken key for many, many years as I thought it would be $300-400 to replace. Then I found these. Everything was great except for the buttons. On the original keyfobs, you could press the buttons easily. With these, you have to really, really try to get the buttons pressed. You cannot just hold the key and press a button (well at least I cannot). You have to hold the keyfob in just the right way, get your tip of your finger at just the right angle to be able to press the button. Even my wife confirmed that the buttons were hard to press. But, I would rather deal with that, than holding the keyfob to start the car while not breaking apart as it typically did.
