TL-S: Why no white gagues for the TL-S?

I was just amazed why the TLS did not get the White gagues? I thought that the Type-S would have one, no ? :confuesed:

I saw that in a 2002 TLS Catalog I grabbed from the dealer. A picture of a TL-S with the same shift knob as ours had a black gagues.

This lead me to that conclusion, unles each TL got the Type-S Shift Knob, or something was Fkedup in the Catalog.

Yeah have u watched the commercial where the dude goes to lunch in Maine for Clam Chower? It's white. If you are referencing Acura's Website, then don't believe what you see.

If you're talking about the brochure, those pictures are how the interior looks with the lights on. With them off, they have the same gauges as the CL-S. It though me off too until I saw the gauges of a TL-S in person with the lights on....
