It's 14 times before you get locked out.
Try d/c the battery to reset it.

Mmm,
But I like good audio quality - so I will be replacing & upgrading the interior speakers, so I have been looking at Alpine, & Pioneer head units. I reckon there can't be much difference to sound quality with Alpine and Pioneer if buying fairly new head units that are say SD Card or Iphone ready etc.
Thanks for the input.

if you leave the ignition on with the radio saying locked, after about 1 hour or so, it will unlock and allow the code to be entered.. the engine doesnt have to be running..
saves you buying another radio..
