Hi Robert,

I don't know if this link is of help. As I don't know what model of radio you are trying to find the code for, knowing that may help me to help you further.

Try t his first and see if the info is stamped on the radio as described. From this I was able to get the code from the dealer without having the VIN#.

Good luck!

Neil.

I just went through this with a 2000 V70 that was given to me. Here's the web form I used. The page gave me the code as soon as I finished filling out the web form.

All you really need is the VIN from the donor vehicle.
