Title: Radio Code
Post by: MattPoss on March 24, 2010, 09:10:07 pm

Evening all,

After getting my new stereo fitted at the weekend i'm looking to offload my old ones. The only problem is I don't have the code for the original RCD300.

Where can I get it from pretty cheaply and pretty quickly?!

One of the new members is looking to buy an original Stereo, might be worth a chat if you can get the code, would be interested in knowing how you get on at the dealer as I have just removed an RCD 300 and the paperwork didnt have the code card when II got the motor.

I bought an RCD510 from a guy with a new Scirroco. He had the radio code with it but it didn't work on my car. We took it to the dealer and they recoded it and gave me the new code FOC. They did require the head unit to be with (not fitted in) the original car with proof of ownership before they would do anything though.

I've just left a note on the wanted advert for the headunit, thanks for that :happy2:

To be honest, my mate is a mechanic at the local dealers so he might just be able to re-code it for me on his dinner break or something. I'll get it sorted this next week.

Cheers guy's
