Arrow radio security code

Firstly many thanks to CharlzO who pointed me in the direction of U Tube for the removal of the radio. As he says in his video, the lugs break really easily and one of mine was actually missing which explains the loose button panel above the radio. Now, I have the radio serial number so who can tell me the security code? As I thought, the serial number is different from the original so it's been replaced at some time or other.

Thanks
Stig

There is a photo on there to show you where the serial number is. It's $19.00 USD; I think they do euro conversion.

A lot less than the dealer will charge.

I am glad they did away with that silly radio code business in the USA models.

R&R your radio or disconnect your battery for a while and you just hook everything back up an go on about your business.
