    FORD CODES ONLY! -- we need the ( correct ) serial number to get the code ( your audio paperwork or radio may not be the original ones ) you will not have unlimited code entry attempts only 10 to 13 & then it will lock you out so do not enter it if its not for that radio -- if you need your serial number then some radios you can press the station preset buttons -- 1&6 or 2&6 -- & it may display the serial number if not then the radio will have to come out from the dashboard ( a vidio on you-tube can show you how ) on the casing of the radio is the radio keycode/serial number label with the serial number on it for that radio ( see photo on the left eg M123456 or V123456 one letter & six numbers ) if its a M serial just post it, SORRY ! BUT IF ITS A "V serial" then its not free as V codes are done by the FORD data base if you need info on poss best sites please ask by posting here & a message will go on your private messages on the header at the top of the page --- or take a look on e-bay I will send a message if needed !
