Can anyone decode my paint code?

I'm trying to figure out the name of the colors on my truck so I can get some touch up paint. I've looked through a couple books I have they don't tell me squat. The codes I have are K3 and YN, it's a two-tone truck.

I think the silver is actually called opal. Thats what mine is and I think its the same color. I had trouble finding touch up paint for my silver paint. I ended up ordering some from paintscratch.com. I'll look and see what my paint code is.

My paint code is UA and WM, so I guess it isn't the same silver as yours. Sorry for the confusion.
