    And as I was driving home I realized at night everything in the cabin was so dang bright...

    Anyone know if there is a way to dim MOST of the in cabin lights including the speedomter, tachometer, fuel, etc.???

    Thanks!

    not sure if its in the same place but in my 2013 it is on the left side of your gauge cluster. It is higher up on the dash next to the gauges....

    The plastic cylinder that comes toward you from the dash gauge. Twist it left and right for brighter and dimmer settings. It's the thing you usually press to reset mileage back to zero on most cars, just twist it.

    You're right, I should have welcomed the guy to the forum first--too many years of supervision and teaching engineering...
