Default Is the digital clock in the 07 white instead of green?

I just checked the specs and pictures on the official site and noticed that in one pic, the digital clock is white.


here's the picture: http://www.lexus.com/models/IS/features/interior.html

After reviewing some other interior pictures of both 07 and 06s, I think it's always been white. It's the other console lights that were green I'm with you on them being all white

The white balance was probably off when they took a picture of the interior, or your computer settings are off.
Both 06 and 07 digital clocks should be white.

Mine's white.

I wish they'd fix that, though, and make all the green buttons white, too.

There is a post around here somewhere...some guy took the buttons apart and said there were hundreds if tiny LEDs. He even found the part and model numbers, but never posted again if he found them for sale etc.. It also wasn't clear if they are soldered onto the circuit board or can be pulled out with pliers.

I'll try to search for it and post a link

The clock is the only thing about the interior of this car that feels cheap. It looks like it's taken from the $20 Casio watch I had in elementary school. Totally tacky and low-end looking.
