    hi any chance you may have a code for the following
    VDO CDR500
    GM050021331958
    thanks :-)
    Sorry....your code will only be available from the Main Dealer database or the unit will have to be taken into a Radio Decoding Service

    It is unlikely to be available for free or cheap from anywhere on the Internet
  • Battery was disconnected and now need code for radio/CD player. But to ask for this, I need to quote serial no....can anyone tell me where to find the serial no please? Can't see it in book! Thanks

    The correct radio SERIAL NUMBER is required for a code

    It usually begins with M or V followed by SIX digits ...such as M654321 or V654321

    Sometimes pressing buttons 6 & 1 together or 6 & 2 will display this number

    Otherwise remove the radio from the dashboard and post the SERIAL NUMBER found on a label on the casing

    Radio removal instructions can be found here
