    Would really appreciate if anyone could provide the unlock code for a Phillips car400 stereo I just got in a Vauxhall Astra. The serial number is GM330886636.

    Thanks.

    The correct Serial Number required should be 14 characters long (GM xxxxxxxxxxxx) and often found stamped in the metal casing

    The most reliable option is to take it into a Radio Decoding Service ( such as your local Car Radio Store) where they will connect it to a laptop to read/recode the memory chip (EEPROM) inside your radio using specialist software. They can usually do it while-you-wait and it will cost around £15
