Question Gauges Daytime readability

I have a tough time reading the dashboard and gauges during the daytime especially on bright days. Anybody else has the same problem.

Solutions??

Thanks
S.Lee

Turn on your driving lights and adjust the dash lights to their highest setting (top switch on left side of the gauge cluster). Then you can turn the driving lights off or leave them on and still see the console gauges, even while wearing your shades. I like the dash lights kinda dim when it's dark, so I adjust them back down at night.

when lights are off, console lights are always on their brightest. only when parking lights are on does the gauge vary in intensity.

You're right. I always use my driving lights in the daytime, I guess that's why this helped me see the digital speedometer better.
