Custom NSTableCellView labels not changing text color when selected

Question

I have a custom NSTableCellView with 3 textfields, 1 that came along and 2 others that i created myself. Here's the problem:

The textfields' text color stays the same even when i click on the row. I've tried to implement a code i found out by googling but it doesn't work. My Custom NSTableCellView code is:

- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)dirtyRect{
    NSColor *color = [NSColor colorWithCalibratedRed:(26/255.0) green:(26/255.0) blue:(26/255.0) alpha:1.0];
    [self.textField setTextColor:color];

    color = [NSColor colorWithCalibratedRed:(102/255.0) green:(102/255.0) blue:(102/255.0) alpha:1.0];
    [_lbl1 setTextColor:color];
    [_lbl2 setTextColor:color];
}

- (void)setBackgroundStyle:(NSBackgroundStyle)backgroundStyle {
    NSColor *color = (backgroundStyle == NSBackgroundStyleDark) ? [NSColor windowBackgroundColor] : [NSColor controlShadowColor];
    self.textField.textColor = color;
    self.lbl1.textColor = color;
    self.lbl2.textColor = color;
    [super setBackgroundStyle:backgroundStyle];
}

What can i do to make the labels' text color white when the user clicks on them?

Actually, overriding setBackgroundStyle on NSTableViewCell has worked perfectly for me, at least on OS X 10.8. It is updated on selection events and on window activation/deactivation.

Here's my custom cell impl — as trivial as it can get:

@implementation RuntimeInstanceCellView

- (void)setBackgroundStyle:(NSBackgroundStyle)backgroundStyle {
    [super setBackgroundStyle:backgroundStyle];
    self.detailTextField.textColor = (backgroundStyle == NSBackgroundStyleLight ? [NSColor darkGrayColor] : [NSColor colorWithCalibratedWhite:0.85 alpha:1.0]);
//    self.detailTextField.textColor = (backgroundStyle == NSBackgroundStyleLight ? [NSColor blackColor] : [NSColor whiteColor]);
}
