Dash lights?
 
I've noticed lately my dash lights seem quite dim. all work fine. just not that bright....
is there a toggle to make them dimmer/brighter? i couldn't seem to find one, but it is dark out and i couldn't see too well.
i know the one on end of the left stick for select lights, but im looking for all dash lights.

The one on the left stalk is for all lights. It's a rotating device on the inside of the stalk.

There's also the "bright" button on the end of the signal stalk. I can't remember what it effects though.

it was my tach/speedo that were too dim for my liking.
but by pressing the left stock button on the end and lifting the stock up at the same time made them brighter?

No, not quite.:) The "brightness" button is on the rhs stalk so far as I know. If you have the lights on in fog or rain, the panel lights automatically dim so you don't get glare at night.

When driving with the lights on in daylight pushing this button brightens up the aircon lights etc so you can see them OK.

In lifting up the lever you accidentally moved the dimmer control. Dimmer control for the gauges is a ring on the left stalk a couple of inches in from the tip of the stalk. It will rotate towards you or away from you. This affects the brightness of the dials.
