You should have the radio code in the owners radio handbook, if not contact your local holden dealer and get the code from them, they will need the car's VIN No that is the 17 digit number on the rego label, when you have the code keep a copy in a safe place as the radio will need re coding every time the battery is disconnected, you can also get a code saver, this is an adaptor that you plug into the cig lighter with the ignition left on ACC it uses a 9 Volt battery to hold codes with the main battery disconnected.
