You must have a 2001 because 1997-2000 did not have an electric front trunk release.

I take it the key head is black plastic and you are not the original owner.

Sounds like for whatever reason you have a 2 button remote used on the 1997-2000 Boxster, or 2001-2004 996.

When the car was new it had 2 remotes and a valet key. Do you have the other remote?
