From a business view, I'd go for the least common denominator.  Make your modules 
compatible to existing systems as much as possible. And that includes making it not only 
electrically, but also VISUALLY compatible.

Nobody's going to buy your modules because of piss-yellow panels and names like Anal 
Probe. They're going to by it because you make great products. However, I can see some 
potential customers being turned off with loud obnoxious colored panels in their Euro 
systems. That negative could very well affect buying decisions.

On the other hand I really don't see people NOT buying you modules because it matches 
the rest of their system. So there's really no business advantage to marginalizing your Euro 
products by painting them yellow.
