This site is 100% genuine! I've tried so many ways to go get my radio code. I was reluctant to pay 4.99 in case it didn't work, but I'm happy to say it did!

Thanks for getting my radio code! My request related to a 1999 Phillips unit in my BMW Z3. Even the main dealer could not find the code. The code was provided immediately and I would highly recommended your site to others!

Philips Serial Number's

Philips car radios will normally contain a 14 digit serial number which can be found either printed on a label or engraved on the side of the unit.

These serials are only visible once the Philips radio has been removed from the vehicle.

Examples of serials include:



More info about retrieving your lost Philips code.

By using our online Philips radio decoding service, you not only save yourself money, but also time and the additional hassle involved. Most vehicle main dealers will require you to book an appointment and take the car and paperwork (v5 logbook) into them before they apply for the radio code.   Once they do apply for the code, 9/10 times it will be based on the vehicle registration or VIN number of the car itself, which is fine if you have owned the car from new. However, receiving the radio code days later only to find that it did not work is yet another inconvenience.

There are a number of reasons why a radio code based on the vehicle registration or vin number may not work, including:


At Radio-Code, we don't provide radio codes based on the car, instead we provide the code based on the individual and unique serial number of the car radio, regardless of what it was fitted to originally.  Our radio codes have proven to be more accurate than main dealer's because of this.

Brilliant ! Hadn't thought it would be so straightforward and even the radio removal instructions were spot on; was able to listen to my favourite CD's while putting the fascia back on. Thank you. . Calum Evans


What a great service, lost my code on changing car battery, couldn't find the code number anywhere and the supplying dealer was bust and gone and was in despair as to what to do.
