How do you make the dasg lights brighter? I have the dimmer switches turned all the way up?
Thanks

Do you have 24v dash lights or 12V.

We had this problem too. Ours were 24 volt soooooooooooooo I put a meter on the rheostat for the dimmer for those bulbs and turned it down till it showed 14 volts and made a stop for it so it could not be turned any higher and replaced all the bulbs with 12 volt ones.

Although I would love to take credit for this idea I cannot I borrowed it, works great lights work way better. ;)

When replacing some lamps for my 24 volt dash, I discovered there are different wattages available.  A little time in the NAPA  lamp catalog might be beneficial.

Just a thought. YMMV
