That can be recovered from.... I only had 1 "sub" key, now have 2 master and 1 sub. Cost me under $100 (including key cutting, but my dealer did cut 3 for $0). Steep learning curve, but it's doable by anyone at home if they put in the effort.
Toyota did *NOT* make it easy though. My solution was very much a hack approach. I think a good locksmith could do the same work with some tech tools for under the $1000 Toyota wants for a new body ECU.
