How do I find out the paint code for my car?

I need to know how to find the paint code for my car since I am about to get the hood repainted.

I think it should be somehwere on the sticker in the glovebox, but I need to know for sure before I go hunting for it since the car is in winter storage outside of town.

It should be on the sticker in the glove box, there should be 2 numbers one for the bottom and one for the top of your car. My car was all the same color and just listed the same paint code for top and bottom.

It should be on the bottom of the sticker and start with the letters WA or U then followed by some numbers.
