Uh hey guys I would like to ask a question, would a vt stock radio fit in a vy, because the radio in my vy doesn’t work and I don’t have the code, so would a vt radio work? Just as a placeholder so I can get the car started?

The stock VT radio will also need a code. You shouldn't need a radio to start the car.

Then put it in. Radios aren't a car specific deal, but if the plug is different and you don't have ISO harnesses you'll have install it the old school way by tracing out wires.

So the vt plug is different to the vy one?

No idea, people usually just go aftermarket which is always different.

I’ll probably go for aftermarket anyway because I’ve got the cradle
