Default Newbie question, Bose w/anti-theft code

Afternoon! This is my second question here, and the first time I was very pleased with the responses I got. So I got another one...

I did a search, couldn't find what I needed, probably did it wrong. But anyway, I'm installing a subwoofer in the rear center storage. I bought the somewhat expensive GM/Bose adapter plug that will give me RCA outputs from the stock deck to go to a sub amp. It of course requires I remove and unplug the radio.
BEFORE I pull the factory radio, how can I get, or set, the anti-theft code, so I don't have a when I put it back in?

Oh, and it's a bone stock '04 convertible.

Thanx!

Pages 3-86 and 3-87 of the owners manual will explain it all.......

It's seems complicated but the manual explains it step by step...

Good Luck..

Thanx! The "unlock" looks to have worked, I'll know when I put it back in.
Dunno why it didn't dawn on me to RTFI.

when I needed it for a Honda, all the dealer needed was the serial # off the radio and they looked it up for me
