I've got components of several clusters bot white and silver gauges yet I've ended up back to black every time. The main reason is that for some reason on all the non-black clusters that back-lit area has been very hard to see at night. I tried LED's and although they look good need to be a full brightness which is distracting on the digital readouts.
