Find the serial

  1. Read the label on the top or side of the sat nav radio.
  2. The serial starts BP or C7.
  3. Type in only the 7 numbers after BP or C7.

It isn’t shown on the display, so read it from the label on the radio’s case (usually the top or side).

Taking the radio out

The radio has to come out so you can read the label. Most slide out with a pair of radio removal keys (a few pounds from any car parts shop); some are held in by screws behind the trim. Photograph the label rather than copying it by hand.

RADIOPush both keys in until they click, then pull the radio forward
