there are two types of white face guages - reverse glow and blue/backlite.

E-bay usually has them both - here is the reverse glow -> http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/00-04-LINCOLN-LS-V6-V8-6-COLOR-GLOW-GAUGES_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33677QQitemZ7996 231621QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

Got mine when the LLSOC was sell them - I believe there is only one manufacturer and two options.

The reverse glow - glows indigo 'green'
The digital blue - like mine

both look the same in the daylight

is it possible to retrofit the 03+ year white gauges into my 02? I kinda like the font and numbers better.

nope - the gauge clusters are different - as the 03+ LSes implemented CAN protocol into their databus.
