Car Radio Unlocking

Yes the PU-9715A is a Clarion.
The only CLARION code available for free (using a serial number ) from anywhere on the Internet is if your radio also has a BARCODE SERIAL NUMBER beginning with C7000000 * * * * * * on a label somewhere on the metal casing.
If not then it will only be available from your Main Dealer or a Decoding Service or your local Car Radio / Audio Shop
Thanks for that, I can't see any barcode serial numbers, there certainly isn't anything that starts with C7. I'll try the dealership. Thanks for your help.0 -

In the majority of cases, the radio will have to be removed in order to identify the MAKE + MODEL of the radio then quoting ALL the NUMBERS+LETTERS found on the radio casing in order to attempt at obtaining/calculating a code.
The ease of removing from the dashboard depends on the make of radio
The common DIN type (with 4 holes) method is explained below with a video demo link
=======================================================
Here is a video showing how to remove your radio from the dashboard. A pair of extractors are required (available from Ebay , Halfords ) but these can be made from 2 pieces of bent, wire coat-hanger or 4 small drills(using the blunt end) or 4 small Allen Keys or 4 small screwdrivers or 4 nails or even 4 darts.
An assistant is useful to pull the radio out whilst you are releasing the 4 securing clips
