Default Can you find the stereo code on the vehicle?

I bought this '05 Pilot used and do not have the stereo security code card that came with the vehicle. The battery was dead when I purchased the car, and I was able to get the code from a series of numbers printed on a label inside the rear hatchback. Now I can't remember which numbers, or where to find this code. Anyone had any experience here?

you can get the serial number from the headunit and the dealer can look up the code for you.

I know w/ the Element, you can press a key combination to get the serial number w/ out having to take it out, but I'm not sure if this applies w/ the Pilot. (w/ the E, you press the 1 and 6 buttons for a few seconds and it displays it)

As far as I know, I doubt that they'd put the code anywhere on the vehicle, that would sort of defeat the purpose of having a code, don't you think?

i don't know where the code is on the pilot exactly, but in the cr-v, the code is stickered onto the left side of glove compartment (on the outside, not inside of the glove compartment). open the glove compartment, and look around on the left sides, towards the driver. good luck .

They like to hide them all over. Sometimes on the back or bottom of ashtrays, inside the glove box etc. Just look carefully
