Hello,
had to change the starter motor on my car, Vauxhall Astra (Mk 4) and now radio is locked. The only thing I can find is if I take the front little panel with the numbers on it off, underneath it says
PA6-GF15
GM13107918
Can anyone help me with the code or do I need different numbers??! Driving to Cardiff from Portsmouth tomorrow and am scared at potential lack of music!!!

The radio will have to be extracted from the dashboard in order to quote the MAKE+MODEL plus all the NUMBERS+LETTERS on ANY LABELS, BARCODES or STAMPED IN THE METAL
Here is a useful video showing how to extract the radio
