[V8] Radio Codes

[cobram at juno.com]

They used to keep these in a database.  Called the dealer, give them the
Vin, and they'd give you the code...some would make you physically take
the car to them.  If it's the Delta, why even bother, aside from the IC
display there's no compelling reason to keep this dinosaur.  Midwest
Electronics, 3713 North 25th Avenue, Schiller Park, Illinois 60176, tel:
800-562-5978 used to be the company that rebuilt the units for Audi, a
friend of mine in a local dealers parts dept gave me their info and they
rebuilt the Delta for around $50 at the time.  This was about a decade
ago, so I don't know if they even exist anymore, but worth a try before
blowing a C-note for 2 minutes of dealer tech time.

I live on a one-way street that's also a dead end. I'm not sure how I got
here, or how I'm going to get out.
