The 737 overhead has two shades of grey, the darker, commonly accepted RAL7011, and a lighter grey on the vital systems panels (fuel, elec, hydraulics and air systems).
Anyone know what this lighter RAL colour is?

RAL7031 is very similar to RAL7011, which is the dark gray/blue used on most of the 737's interior panels. I'm looking for the light grey colour used on the fuel, bus-transfer, hydraulic and bleed air system panels. I think it may also be the colour of the roof linings, it's very similar.

Personally i thought it was white/cream coloured. If its the panels i'm thinking of on the overhead they're certainly more white than grey as far as i know.

There's definately a shade of gray in them. Take a look at this photo and compare the panel colour with the white toggle switch caps...

It's almost the same colour as the Boeing style knobs.
