Do you not have a car to look at? If you do, stick her face in the dash and say "What color is that?"
J/K lol

You know you can always figure this out easy on any car/truck. Turn off the a/c fan roll up the windows and drive. If air is comming in the vents while the car is moving guess what.

So, after looking at all of 'em this am on b4 coming to work, it looks like Brettus got it right. Here it is:

AC - green.
Defrost (front & rear) - orange
Fresh - green
Recycle - orange

I think your GF is colorblind ... it's green.
There is no yellow anywhere. At least not on the 04 GT model.
