My parents ran into an issue where the key on their GX470 fob began to break out of the plastic remote housing. Rather than trying to swap the key to a new housing (which requires completely destroying the old housing), or getting a new fob entirely (expensive), I designed and made an external brace that holds the key and housing together.
Apparently this is a common issue, so I made a bunch to help out other friends and coworkers.
Not only will this solution repair a broken key fob, but it acts as a preventative measure even if your key hasn't broken yet!
If anyone is interested in these braces, I'm selling them for
$12 shipped (continental US only)
The package will include the external key fob brace and the appropriate screw for installing it to your key fob. In addition to the 03-09 GX470 key, this brace will likely fit any of the following keys:
02 Lexus ES300
98-05 Lexus GS300
98-00 Lexus GS400
01-05 Lexus GS430
01-05 Lexus IS300
98-00 Lexus LS400
01-06 Lexus LS430
01-08 Lexus LX470
99-03 Lexus RX300
04-06 Lexus RX330
04-09 Lexus RX350
06-07 Lexus RX400h
02-09 Lexus SC430
