Vauxhall Zafira/Phillips radio code

[KatieG]

Hi bubblegum 31 - did you have any luck getting the code for my radio? serial no again is GM0400Y2699831 - happy to pay you (or anyone else who can help) as long as it's less than �20! Cheers.

have you tried vauxhalls

[KatieG]

I've contacted Vauxhall, as well as a number of other on-line sites - they all want to charge me �25 - I was trying to find out if I can get it any cheaper and Bubblegum 31 said he'd try to get the code for free - if this isn't likely then I'm happy to pay the lowest bidder.

Try this Bubblegum, email them first, if it works it could not be cheaper........

hi katie please dont pay for your code i have sent an email to a decoding friend of mine who has the phillips database as your code is not in my database so i should have a reply from him either today or tomorrow so please wait until then, by the way katie im a woman lol

[KatieG]

aha! Sorry to assume you were a man and thanks for trying to help me out on this without ��� - hope I can return favour somehow or I'll at least 'pay it forward' - good karma all round!

hi again katie it seems that because your radio is a model later than 1999 that there is no chance of you getting your radio code for free unfortunately this is because all the databases that the decoders have ends at 1999 models so therefore im afraid youre gonna have to go to a dealer and i hate myself for saying that as i know they are a flippin rip off, please dont try the likes of ebay etc as they only have the same database as other decoders and you will pay and your code will not be listed
good luck hun sorry i cant help

[KatieG]

Hi bubblegum 31 - never mind - thanks so much for trying!
Hi Toureman - thanks for the suggestion - I did try that place but it will cost �20+ for same reason as Bubblegum mentioned. Thanks everyone for trying to help me with this, guess I'm stuck with forking out! x

I'm sure the code is the last 4 numbers of your VIN. Reversed.

[KatieG]

... that would be brilliant if it was...just one thing...what's my VIN (vehicle ID number?) and where do I find it?!

[Everhelpful]

On your Registration Document. It is Vehicle Registration Number(VIN)

It worked on my Car and Mechanic said it works for most cars. Hope he was right.

[KatieG]

...sadly this didn't work on my car - perhaps it isn't the original stereo after all. Thanks to everyone for their suggestions.

Have you tried a combination of last 4 numbers?
