Both my keys to my 2017 LC 200 SERIES have been cooked.
I have to get a new ECU unit plus keys ect dash has to come out and so, expensive.
I have source a locksmith who thought that he could remap the system by connecting to the ECU , but because being a late model November 2017 he hasn't got the right gear.
Any ideas or suggestions would help
 
Have you tried Toyota? I’m guessing the ECU swap solution came from them? I’ve not bought a car recently, but you used to get a code number with keys so that this could be presented to the dealer for new ones.

How do you know they’ve both been fried?

The only other solution I can think of is to get an ECU and keys from a wrecked 200. You may need other parts as well, not sure on this for your vehicle but on my Cursed Smart Car the fusebox and speedo had to be changed along with the ECU and keys. And it had to be from the same spec car else some of the features would not work. You could be waiting a very long time for donor parts unless you are really lucky.

Welcome to the forum BTW.
