The trunk still should unlock with the metal key. Insert key, turn in one direction then push. If that does not work, turn in the other direction. The trunk lock is like an old car where you can leave it unlocked but pushing the lock opens the latch.
The remote needs to be synced with the car. On 97 model year the remote is clicked 2 x then key inserted in ignition and turned to run. Not sure if the 98 electronic key is the same.
