How can I get 3 button key for C4S Cab ?

Some of the spec sheets for the 997 I have seen indicate there is a 3 button version of the key where the 3rd button operates the convertible roof. It also noted this feature was not available in all countries. Assuming anything this dangerous wouldn't pass muster in the good old US of A, is there any way to retrofit this capability for my '07 cab ?

Agreed, but it's a pricey solution to what I hoped would/might be a simple solution.

The SmarTop isn't likely any pricier than buying a 3 button key and having it programmed to operate you top, even if that is possible. A Boxster key has 3 buttons, which is what my Targa uses so that there is a button for my rear window hatch.
I like the SmarTop solution as it provides other conveniences too.
