No penalty, but must be removed.

2. Wrist bands that do not match a color on a jersey?
3. Head bands of teammates that are not the same color?
4. Head bands that are not the same as the primary color of a jersey?

There's nothing wrong with either of those. Headbands simply have to be of a single color. It doesn't say they have to match the shirt.

5. Blue T shirt under a red jersey with blue trim?
6. T shirt that is white under a black jersey with yellow trim?

Player should be sent to the bench to remove the t-shirt. I believe the trim color of the shirt is irrelevant. The t-shirt must be similar in color to the primary color of the jersey.
If the player is not yet in the game, do not allow him/her to sub in until the t-shirt is removed.
Gotta come off immediately. If removal involves any significant delay, the player should be sent to the bench and replaced.
In any of these cases (except the headband and wristbands), the player may not "buy" the offending items into the game with a T. It comes off or it's pine city, baby. No penalty, but no playing time, either.
