Sounds like you bought the car new, so I guess it's the original radio. You should have got a 'car pass' with it which has ignition key number, radio and ECU codes (needed if you get replacement keys). Don't bother with websites, just order a new car pass from the Vx dealer - may cost you £10, but worth it for the information.

As John S suggests. Contact Vauxhall for the Car Pass.
