Try asking a dealer, giving them the VIN, or even Jaguar themselves. (If anyone's replying.)

Have you dug through any manuals in the glove box? There should be a credit card looking card with your codes. Mine was hiding in between some of the manual pages. That said, I can say I have never seen a Jaguar Hearse. Post a pic when you can.

Your local dealer should have access to the code after you prove ownership.
Never needed the code to turn the stereo on after disconnecting the battery on mine.

I think US cars do not need a code. Britain cars required a radio code, which am assuming this hearse is. As said by Wingrider, the dealers have access to a data base and should be able to help you. Never understood, why anyone would even want a Jag Radio in one of these cars to steal. They would be worthless for anything other than a Jag.

True about what you said Donny Williams.
But another Jag owner, would know just how to remove it, for a transplant into their Jag.
