Default Rec Manual- Changing text color?

Can someone more familiar with the bloddy menu_1024_768.ini possibly provide some illumination... literally.

My sig contains my current mods so you can see I'm running the latest RFB 1.52 and a darker Rec Manual for night attacks. the default rec manual that comes with RFB is not set up to be darker at night so it's virtually impossible to spot anything while it's open. The .jpg below shows the current Rec manual background I'm using.

All I'd like to do is brighten the text. At night the darker background works well, but conversely it's so dark that in the day I can't bloddy well see the text values, descriptions etc.

I assumed (bad idea) it was just a color change in the menu_1024_768.ini in the following areas and lines (see orange text):

Am I least on the right track or is there some other weirdness I must do to make this happen? i.e. do I need to make changes elsewhere?

I've seen pics where people have yellow or orange text for their ship info & values in their Rec Manual. That's all I'm tryin to accomplish here, but when I change the color I get nothin' in game. It still remains black and hard as hell to see during the day. Just as an FYI; I am making these changes while in port.

Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
