Wirecoat hanger works well
Keys are £6 at Halfords or £2 on ebay , but its worth trying the coat hanger trick0 -
Turn the key to the first stop and turn radio on. The word SECURE will appear. Leave for up to an hour. At some point CODE will appear. using the first 4 numbers on programme selector put radio code in then press the /\ (up) arrow on the RHS - hey presto
Tried it today but couldn't get the word CODE to appear :think: will try it again tomorrow. Oh btw do you have to sit and watch for the code or if i turn the key can i leave it for a bit and go back and check? Thank youI love my New Year's day baby girl Olivia xx:happyhearxx0 -

Remove the radio from the dashboard. Read the serial no. from the label.
