I kind of goofed and picked up a factory radio (for the intention of installing it in a Fiero at some point but I didn’t realize the one I picked up had the Theftlok feature. Is there an easy way to bypass or reset it so that I don’t have to enter a code? Here is a pic of it. It’s supposed to be from a 95 Pontiac. (model unknown) Also, this radio doesn’t have the accessory pigtail harness/ connector. Can I get an aftermarket Schoche one or must I get one from a GM radio that had the cassette option?
Thanks, Kit

Theftlock was not enabled on all of those radios, although it was an available feature, likely when you wire it in it'll be fine.
