You want the latch swapped over. Don't rely on the dashboard button. There is a switch in the trunk to be used when giving the car to valets that prevents entry into the trunk. It makes the keyfob to no longer pop it or allow you to use keyless to open and it also disables the button. The only way to open the trunk if that switch is on is to use the key or figure out some way to manhandle the rear seats into folding from inside the cabin.
The unfortunate part is that they installed this switch low in the trunk on the left side. Someday, sometime, stuff you have in the trunk will hit it and lock you out of your trunk. You'll be glad that your key works in it then.
