Do the 2 separate buttons actually work that way? IE, can you hit the "lock" button multiple times and it will only keep trying to lock the car, rather than unlocking it?
Sometimes it's hard to tell if I locked the car or not when I hit the remote, like if it is too bright outside to see the lights flash and too noisy to hear the quiet horn arming sound. So I'll hit it again, but to be sure check the door and find out I just unlocked it again.
Whereas on the GMC with two button remote I can just hit the lock button several times if I'm not sure whether I locked it or not.

I honestly don't know. My remotes only have a single button. I don't have the newer two button version, although I'm tempted to get one to see how it works.
Perhaps It's just a 2 button remote like the OEM and can be used to control 2 different cars.
I've taken my remote apart and there are actually 4 buttons on the circut board. I've tried the other three, but they can't be trained to the SVX's keyless entry system, although the transmit led does light up when you hit any of the 4 buttons. Perhaps a different frequency on the other 3 buttons?
I also have some of their remotes for my other (non-SVX0 cars and they also work perfectly.
