Problem is there are like 4-5 different FCC #s for our cars.

BUT!

I took a gamble on ebay and paid $14 for a lightly used remote with, what seemed to be the more common FCC ID #.

Got it in a few minutes ago, programmed it in a minute...and...IT WORKS! Woot!
No more worrying about scratching up my door lock by fumbling around at night trying to unlock it.

On sedans there is a security feature for the trunk lock that defeats the inside release. Open your trunk and look at the latch on the lid, you will see a small white plastic pin sticking out (IIRC it's on the left side). Move that to the other position and your inside release should work.

I know about this because someone moved mine while I was out to sea and my gf was complaining. I got home, figured it out and voila! I think it might be covered in the owner's manual, I always read them but it has been some time since I looked at my Pro's.
