Yellow Lettering?

Anyone know why on the 90-92 camaros they switched to yellow font color on the interior of camaros?

My car is all yellow inside and it really is ugly compared to the nice white lettering on the earlier models...was there a point to this or just a change in styling?

Power Windows, Power Locks, Power Mirrors, Shifter Console, AC/Heat controls, Radio controls all yellow

Egad......u need to clean them or get some new one's if they look like faded white. That yellow is BRIGHT if it is in good shape. U must have some worn out switches or something........

I love the yellow gauges compared to the earlier model, but everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
