Question Radio Help!

long story short,, lost my keys the other day, had to call acura roadside to open the car for me,, alarm went off,, had to disconnect battery to stop alarm,, finally find keys thrown in the garbage can hours later! wtf i dont know how they got their but just happy to have found them,, but as we all know,, if you disconnect the battery in a honda or acura,, you get locked out of yor radio in which you need that nifty littyle 6 digit code to unlock and not just for the radio,, for the bluetooth as well! (not easy to drive a stick andhold your cell phone at the same time,, need my bluetooth! lol)

here is what i've tryed already,, i've tryed calling Paragon acura where i purchased the car (NEVER deal with them terrible experience) and giving the service departmen my vin number,, they said "sorry it's not here in our database for some reason hmm bring the car in so we can pull the radio out of the dash and get the serial number off the side so we can crossreference it with some other bullshit and they get the code for you,,, which means i would have to go back to Woodside, NY from TOms River, NJ,, that's not a short and fun trip at all andi 'm certainly not going to get my car "serviced" for the radio by those scam artists,,

Their has to be another way for me to get his code,,, does anyone know of a website where i could register the car online and look in a database or some other option please,,,,

also i already looked in my owners manuel that comes with the car and the code is not their either! my options are becoming very narrow i do not want to travel to ny and pay the dealer for 6 numbers.......

thank you awaiting replies

You can register at Acura Owner's Link and enter your VIN and it should give you the radio code. Try this link. http://www.ahm-ownerlink.com/prod_home.asp

If that doesn't work, there is a procedure in the manual for getting the serial number directly from the radio. Look for the page on Radio Theft Protection.

Also try looking on the outer sides of the glove compartment, which is where they stuck mine, or anywhere else they might have put the sticker with the codes.

well i tryed that link you gave me,, i registered my TL but it asks for you to put in the radio code,, it didn't look it up for me with my vin,, next step let me go lookin at stickers on the car,,,, maybe someone could look in their owners manuel for me being that mine is M.I.A. and look up for retrievel of the radio code withtout taking the the radio outof the dash.

thanks

have you tried to put a code in at all
if try to put it in more than three times you have to disconnect the battery again for 10 secs
with the vehicle on radio off while holding 1 and 6 down turn on the radio and it should give you the serial number
if you can give me the serial number i can get you the code
