Does anyone know the correct Porsche part number for a spare transponder key for a 2002 Boxster 986 2.7 Tip?

I've just bought one and been sold a pup, I was assured it would fit my pre-facelift Boxster but it's only a two button unit, part no. 986 637 243 03. It comes complete with the barcode tag and the original outer bag, but there is also a blank on the bag where the Key Code should be.

If I can use it somehow I don't mind losing remote access to the trunk, frunk or even both, but if not am I correct in my suspicion that without a key code the unit has almost no resale value except as a replacement two button casing and battery?
