Try using a blacklight (the flourescent variety, as the incandescent types
barely produce any UV). TNG lights up very brightly, while trans-yellow is just
trans-yellow (unless it’s the original Toa eyestalk or Kaukau mask, which are
actually a trans-neon-yellow color that has never been used for any other
parts). Unfortunately, light-grey and light-bley look exactly the same under
blacklight, so this would make it even harder to sort them. The only suggestion
I could offer for those would be to try a spread of different bulb types
(particularly the compact flourescents where they have much greater control over
color temperature) and see if there’s any specific brand that helps make the
differences stand out.
