I am trying to get the damned radio out of my 1995 honda accord lx. Can someone help? The radio is displaying a "code" and the dealer is trying to charge me 75 bucks for the code. If I get the serial number can someone help me with the stupid code? It sucks driving in silence.

 

get the serial and go to the dealer, please look at the accord faq for the radio removals

 

take the radio out and take the car and the radio to the dealer..
they are charging you for the removal and re-install

Exactly. If you have the number they'll give you the code for free (they'll just look it up on the computer). When they have to remove the radio to get the serial number they'll charge you for labor to remove / reinstall the radio.

Of course, you can always spend $150 or less at Crutchfield and get a very nice aftermarket radio. In early June I picked up a new Sony head unit (GT410U) and four Sony speakers for my '95 Camry for $205 total. Included kit & harness and speaker adapters. The head unit plays .mp3s, .wma, & .aacs (non-DRM) off of a usb flash drive (plugs in directly) or off of a CD-R, or I can plug in an .mp3 player. There is no comparison between this radio and the '95 Camry OEM radio / speakers... and I'm sure that the '95 Honda Accord's system is comparable to the '95 Camry's system. Even if things are tight and/or you live in a high crime area, you can replace at least a couple of your speakers cheaply - this alone will greatly improve your sound.

 

I don't know how long the info is kept in the system by the Honda Dealership, but I called the dealeship from which my Honda was purchased and they transferred me to the service department. After giving the service manager the VIN number of my Honda, he was able to give me the code. If you purchased the vehicle elsewhere, you can call the toll-free number of Honda.com and they may be able to locate the original purchaser(Dealership) of your vehicle. The serial number for my radio was on a sticker placed on the inside panel of my glove compartment box. This also helps to locate your radio code.

every honda dealership can tell you it by looking it up in their system
