I replaced them and it still doesn't remotely unlock the car and when I manually use the key it unlocks but the alarm goes off and when I try to start the car it fires right up then shuts down virtually immediately. Anyone go through this before and have suggestions? Thanks for any help in advance.

Did it fail when you started the car after fixing the ignition problem? If so you may have not reattached or broken the halo ring wire or pulled it off its connector at the SKREEM module.
Look there first, it's been done before.
