Different display devices need a different plastic filter to hide the
hardware but still pass the light from the device. That makes a
considerable contrast improvement. But the plastic's perceived color
will be different for different colors of light source.

Colors of Corsair I and Corsair II are quite a bit different so their
accessories (power supply and remote VFO) come in different colors
though they are virtually the same electrically.
