Homelink HELP! Chamberlain opener

Ok - I'm about ready to blow a gasket. I've done Homelink on at least half a dozen cars. I understand how to do it for standard and rolling codes - clear the buttons, hit one to get the slow flash,...

06 S vs. 07 S vs. RS60

This RS60 has the black top actually... I'd wait on the 09s but man, it is a long wait. I originally set a budget of $30K and have been creeping it up. But most 08s I have found are at least $40K...
