00 solara, 96 4runner - 1 remote control?
heya!
i've got a 1996 4 runner w/ a 2-button ghetto lookin remote. looks like this:

i've also got a 2000 SE solara w/ a 3-button (if you count panic) lookin remote. looks like this:

FCC ID on solara remote is: GQ43VT14T
on the 4runner, the two buttons are for 2 toyotas. the top button locks/unlocks toyota1, the bottom locks/unlocks toyota2.
i've tried programming in the remote via these instructions and i know i'm in the programming sequence as the locks lock/unlock when they are suposed to, but, to no surprise, it doesn't add the remote:

right off the bat, the instructions instruct you to hold down the lock/unlock buttons on the remote simultaneously. well, the old 4runner doens't have distinguishable lock/unlock buttons. i did try holding both toytoa1 and toyota2 buttons simultaneously.
so the bottom line question is this: is there a way to get my 4runner and solara on the same remote? (without cheating and going aftermarket
)
thx!
