not a very easy option, but you can buy neutral density filters from a photographic shop ( plastic, can be cut with scissors ) to darken them ( kind of like sunglasses material, comes in all different 'brightnesses' from almost black to almost clear. )

do you have a circuit diagram of the control unit by chance ? should be able to do it electronically.

how about trying to fit a in-line variable resistor to the main dash light power if at all possible ?

Still waiting on some shims!
How about using the brightness adjuster that came fitted in the kit... :lol:

Unless you forgot to fit that part...

Bluetone EL Dials and the AutoIllusion Reverse EL iDial kits all came with brightness adjusters... The Bluetone also let you change from Blue to Green...

Install a 1000W interior light and keep it switched on, will make the dash lights appear dim in comparison.

Install a resistor.
