hello
everyone i'm doing a quick
video on how to
unlock a radio for a chevy
malibu 2008 ltz
but basically this should work for
any vehicle i tried all kinds of things
i i even watched the video where
they took the chip out inside of here
i ain't want to go through all of that
um you good
another option is going to the dealer
and they're going to charge your arm and
a leg and then they got the number 1 800
number you could call
and it's too much of a hassle basically
so i found
another quick way on how to do this
and like i said this should work with
any vehicle as long as they got this
face plate on it uh you could take these
off there's four screws on the side
one two three four on the side
uh let me show you on this one
basically to have four screws right here
one
two one two
and then on the other side same thing
um basically
my radio work but
the bulbs in it gone so it'll it'll play
sound
but you can't see what you're doing you
can't
control the beige you can't control the
you could control the volume but you
can't see what you're doing basically
so what i did i went to the junkyard i
brought this
it's locked and as you can see it's a
different color it's the silver one but
i at this point i would i didn't really
care
what color it was as long as i had some
music but um
i did some research and i found the
face plate right here the same color as
this one
um i found this one on ebay for the low
low
um i think i paid like 15 bucks for it
and and they want some radios they want
150
and down like the cheapest ones i see is
like 60 bucks something like that
but um which i brought one for them from
the junkyard but like i said it don't
work so what i'm gonna do i'm gonna
probably sell that one
get my money back you know so basically
a quick video just to show you guys how
to
quickly unlock the easiest way to unlock

anybody out there and like i say even if
you're looking
to just replace your radio on any car i
would try this first
try to remove the face plate off of it
because the vin numbers in here

here you could take that chip out but it
was
a couple of chips i seen and i ain't i
