you'll know if it will work b/c the car either will or won't program the key. the car does it...either with a scan tool....or the manuel wode (not sure how it is done on our car never done it)...i don't see why not. our car is set up with a wireless reciever..only difference between your new remote and the standard one..is the new one looks cool. that's it.

i see no reason why it won't work...good luck and enjoy your new key/remote

edit: just noticed that you bought it off someone..no worries just program it..in your car...it will just be overwritten so you can use it..no big deal...i do it a lot at work (i work for a toyota dealership).

opps forgot to add..there was a thread awhile ago (when the switch balde key first came out) about using it with the 04's...and how to program it so you don't have to pay the dealership for that. i just forgo twhere it is...if you dig a lill' bit i'm sure you can find it...adn dust it off
