Orange Trackball

Does anyone make a orange 3" trackball?  Preferably a true orange, not a red/orange, more like the fruit.

thanks

A trackball out of a crystal castles will be REALLY close.

I've seen a few Nicotine stained trackballs that are quite orange.   :P

People with the Red Translucent ball have said their ball looks orange when not lit.

I wonder if a Yellow LED were added to one of these, would it look orange?

Not only does it *look* orange when unlit, it *is* orange.  It's almost to the point of false advertising.  Lit up, it looks more like a deep orange, and it's a little more red, but it's still orange to me.  If you used a yellow LED, I'll bet that would give you a really nice orange color.  Good suggestion.
