It would be there from the original sale not the sale to you.

You're gonna need the serial # off of your radio. Then the dealer can get it for you.

Was there a seperate manual for stereo operation only in your folder? Should be in there.

Default in theory.. yes.. it should be there

but it says "please detach the RADIO CARD and keep it in a safe place AWAY from your vehicle"

previous owner.. very good at following directions.. so the RADIO CARD isn't there...

SOL!
