Radio code needed

Post by rhillips »

Hi all,

I have purchased an old Clarion radio on eBay and looking for the radio code. I don't have the vin number, just the radio serial number. I have tried some providers and they either don't have it or it look proper dodgy, spoken to peugeot and they can't help without the vin number.

Any ideas welcome :)

You may not need the VIN of the original vehicle, but you will need a Lexia system to 'introduce' the 'new' radio to your C8. Otherwise it will generate a loud BEEP every couple of seconds.

Yes I ask the stupid questions, because normally it is that simple.

Do you know model of the Clarion, or what car it came from?
Or can you post a picture, as different models may have different techniques for decoding.
