I have lost all keys for my 2000 RX-300. I have heard horror stories of this costing lots of $$. Any ideas what the cheapest way I can get a new key made?

If the new car dealer ship did their job right. When the car was first sold. The key code was sent to Toyota.

A dealership should be able to cut a new key that will unlock the doors, and turn the ignition lock.

But if your key has a transponder chip in it, you will still need to have the car towed to a dealer to have it programed to accept that key to start the engine.
