Question about Stock Stereo
 
Where is the serial located on the stereo in an 00' Acura Integra Type-R?
Is it on the bottom or top? Engraved or sticker?

You have to go to the dealer with your VIN to get the code.

Or you can call with the Stereo's serial number, + they aren't open today and I'd rather just call tomorrow give them the serial and receive the code.
So i'm just trying to find out where it is on the stereo.

And if it is only 8 characters? Because i see 8 engraved characters on the bottom of my stereo in the back middle of it. Without taking it out of course. =P.

Than call them, or go there.

The code is not on the radio itself. It MAY be in your owner's manual, but most of the time it is not, and you have to get it from the dealer.

I'm not actually looking for the code.
I'm looking for the Serial Number. Which SHOULD be on the stereo.

ya it is on the stereo. i Have a integra stock radio in my accord and the serial number is on there but im not exactly sure. but you can call the dealer and ask them where its at or just give them the number and they should be able to help you out.

Was just wondering why you need the serial number. I still have my oem radio in also.

I actually had my battery run out on me from lack of use. =\ .
Now that i actually use it again, i replaced my battery, and forgot that you need the code to reactivate. So short of taking it out of my car, i wanted to know if the engraved Letters/Numbers on the bottom back side of the stereo that are still visible by looking underneath my glove and to the left, is the serial. =]

STOP BEFORE YOU SPEND MONEY, seriously i had this question about a month ago, pop the hood, look inside the engine fuse box or whatever its called, looking into the engine, the upper left box next to the battery, open it up and look at lid to see if there is a sticker with numbers on it, that is the code, the acura dude told me that when i had my car maintenance done, if it isnt there, sorry, i have a 99 gs so i believe that is where they started putting them. no sense in taking the radio out lol

nvm i feel like a jackass now lol, totally not what you needed, nvm about that post then, as for serial, they pretty much got it right lol

So i just got a new stereo... well not really new. actually extremely old. but it works and well its a cassette player. And since i only use my ipod to connect to a car anyways, i thought it'd be nice.
So any information on how to take out my stock stereo, would be greatly appreciated. =[ don't know very much besides basics on my car.... lol.
