Do a search. There are already many threads explaining how to retrieve codes.

Your car comes with almost everything you need to get codes. If you have a paper clip or something close to it in the glove box then you have everything.

I just went to Autozone this weekend and they gave me a metal key that can pull the codes for you.
You will have to look in the manual to see what slots you need to put the key into to flash the codes.
the haynes manual will tell you how to get the codes as well and I believe it has a list of what the codes are as well.
I hope this helps.

Read the sticky from Mike in the 3rd gen section, he explains the whole procedure.
