BMW: Radio Code Retrieval, bmw 525i, radio code

Question
I need to replace a battery on my 95 BMW 525i. As for the radio
code, is there a way to retrieve it without taking it in to a dealer?
Is there an online database where a vin could be entered or
something of this sort? thank you, Butch L.

Answer
Butch,
 I think it is printed inside the owners manual or on a card somewhere.  
 I do not know if there is an online database for Radio codes, although I highly doubt it.  You should be able to call the Dealership and give the Vin, and in return they "should" be able to give you the code.  
 I know it's a pain, but that's how I had to do it one time.
 Have a good weekend,
 Josh
