Sorry, just being a jacka$$.

Look in your "glove box" for a little sticker with 5 digits on it.

You likely bought the car used: there is a card and two stickers with the radio code on it. Usual place for sticking the sticker is the door of the center console (glove box).

Otherwise you can pull the radio and take the serial number to the Honda dealership for the code.

Or just buy an upgraded headunit to replace the crummy stock one.

Or buy my 02 head unit and I'll throw in the code for free....

You will have to get the serial number to your radio and call a Honda dealership for the code. They might want to charge you for it.

To get the serial number without removing the radio you might try this, it works in Accords and Civics etc...I haven't had my S long enough to try it out.

1. Make sure radio is in the off position.
2. Ignition off.
3. Hold presets 1 and 6 and turn ignition on (not to start the car, just the key in the #2 position)
4. While still holding presets 1 and 6, push the knob to turn the radio on, if it works it will show the serial number 4 numbers at a time... first 4 numbers and then the next 4 numbers a few seconds later.
