Just bought my first Corsa (my first car).
It's got a Philips Car400 in it which is asking for the code (since whoever had it before me had a CD player in it). I'm gonna put a new headunit in it as soon as I pass my test 
Just wondering is it possible to download a program to get the code, and would that be legal?
Cheers again.

Found places on the net who charge £10 to provide the code.
Or you can pay 150Euro for some hardware that will reset it etc.
Just going to wait and get a CD player.
