How to find MEID of CDM 8945 VW flip phone?

[szr888]

I have an old Verizon UTStarcom (Audiovox) CDM 8945 VW "V-cast" phone that I got back around 2007-2008-ish and I'm trying to find what the MEID. I've googled around quite a bit and found dialer codes for getting into debug mode and other some such, but I've yet to find one that actually tells me what the MEID (or ESN) is.

I still have the original box, though it's at another location (I'm slowly moving things to another house little by little and it's in a big box over there where I'm not at right now) so that wont be an option for about a month.

Is there any sort of code I can enter? Thanks for any help.

Also, I don't see the number under (or on) the battery either.
