    Does anyone know a way of getting the serial number for a 6000 CD player without removing the radio? I don't have the tool to extract the radio. I just tried using something else and it wouldn't budge

    Using the wallbash wire coathanger method , here is a useful video demonstrating the procedure

    Sorry about this .....but despite the comprehensive collection of letters + numbers quoted , I still can not recognise a Serial Number required for the calculation. It should be 14 characters in length and usually stamped in the metal casing.
