Hey Guys, Have tried to put all new globes in dash, which were all LED now and has made no difference. Still looks the same, in particular in the middle of dash and towards the revs. Anyone work out why its not becoming bright? Have also adjusted the dimmer to the full brightness but still not bright

Did you make sure they are all in the right way? LEDs are polarity sensitive so that might explain why some parts of your dash are darker than others. Not all LEDs are created equal especially if you buy generic brands off eBay. I find they are very hit and miss and a lot of them aren't as bright as they claim to be.

Yer I worked out that LED's have to be a certain way after a lot of f**king around lol. Finally got them in, they are brighter but not by that much, still looks great, probably dont want them to bright anyway.

Sweet as, I swapped my gauge bulbs to LED and they were heaps brighter. I tried a couple in the dash but didn't really like the look personally, I prefer the stock look and just turn the up as bright as they go.
