I think the only place would be the Acura dealership. And it'd probably cost you an arm and a leg for those fuckers to fix it. It'd probably be cheaper to just buy a new radio and never have to worry about it again.

try tracking down what dealership it came from, i.e. the orig Acura dealer. I have heard of them sticking a label behind the ashtray, in the glove box or in your owners manual. Call a few local dealers and see what they say....

if it is not under the fuse box cover or not in the manual... it could also be on the side of your glove box... just open it and take a look at both sides... it is a white sticker with 5 numbers on it... or could be in the trunk somewhere. those are the normal places...
if all fails pull out your head unit and then call up acura dealer and tell them the number on the back.

my cl is a mess.. i checked all over.. i didnt find it.. anyhow i call'd up the dealer where the car was bought in 1998, and they told me the car havent been there in 4 yrs so now they want 76.00 for the code cos they gotta search for it.
i might as well spent another 100 and buy an aftermarket shit

that's F'N
just cause that shit hasn't been there in 4 years they wont give you a service that's free to you? LAzy bastards. It takes five secs to punch in the number off the bottom of the radio. I had to do that when my battery was disconnected for too long.......isn't there a 1800 # you can call that's in the manual?
