    Comes out failry easy!
    Have a look at this video (link previously posted by RegWorts)
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urC-4NbXvDQ
    It is possible to not use the extractors shown in video by:
    these can be made from 2 pieces of bent, wire coat-hanger or 4 small drills(using the blunt end) or 4 small Allen Keys or 4 small screwdrivers or 4 nails or even 4 darts.

    Will include instructions for putting in code when you post serial number
  • thank you for your reply. but thats not my car in the youtube video

    thing is i dont have those ''ford radio tools'' mentioned in the video huhuhu:confused:

    how do i do it? and granted that my car is not like the one on the video, would it be possible for you guys to still get that code for me?? :mad:

    The video is an example on how to remove most units Ford's tend to be double size, Others single. In the majority of cases they all come out the same ; ie 4 holes that you 'prod' with a tool, One each side. Or as in the post you can use 4 slim items (nails, screwdrivers etc) If you cannot get it out using these then go to your local car shop or Halfords, they cost around £4 and they fit most units not just Ford.

    If your serial starts with M then we can decode it
