Ok, calling all style aficionados.. I want to change my (rather bright) yellow ETB dials for something more in keeping with the era. I'm trying to keep the same units because
a) they work
b) they're British made and
c) I'd rather recycle than just buy new

(I'd most likely have to throw the old units away if I can't get the dial colour changed because I can't see me finding someone who likes yellow dials in this day and age..)
So, here's the original dash setup - yellow dial, black pointer, black bezel
Here's black dial, white pointer, chrome bezel (forgive the bad photo editing)
Finally magnolia dial, black pointer, chrome bezel
The dash will stay black crackle finish. What's your preference and why?
Thanks guys

I like the vintage look of the magnolia. It reminds me of the slightly off-white lume color on the dial of my vintage watches.
