Thanx,
JEREMY

Call the dealer..

they should be able to help you with that..

it's just couple click for them to get the radio code...


If the radio has been changed to some other OEM radio from other car, the you have to pull-out the radio and read of some serial number/model number of the body of the radio so that the dealer can give the right code .. ;)

If you bought the car brand new or if the person you bought it from took real good care of the records and gave you all the paper work, tear through it and you might get lucky, I did.

actually you could retrieve the code from dealer using your vin number. If this fail, then you need to take out the head unit and ask them to give you the code.

It will only take them a minute to pull it up, I did not have the code in my books either...
