MIP and Overhead Annunciators

Hello all,

quick question on the preferred route for 737NG MIP and OVH Annunciators.

My MIP came with all the little boxes to make the annunciators but they are all light grey. Truthfully they stand out on my MIP. Based on the pics I've seen they tend to be the same color as the MIP. Am I off base here?

If that is the case, then I need to paint them all the same grey as my MIP.

On the same note, is the inside painted too? If it is painted a dark color, then the legend on the faceplate will not be visible unless it is lit up... is that the way it is in the RW?

Thanks,

Warren
