stock radio light question

[Hologram]

is there anyway to lower or dim the lighting around the stock radio? for me personally it takes away from my night vision when i drive.

thx!

Without major surgery, no. Sorry. It bothers me as well. It wouldn't have taken much for them to fix this but it likely cost another five bucks.

I would cut out of some electrical tape and put it over the lights if it bothers you that much.

Does the interior light dimmer change the brightness of the radio?

[gdanaher]

The only dimmer I am aware of works with the instrument cluster, and no the two are not attached.

The instrument cluster dial dims the instrument cluster as well as the radio. But if you dim the brightness of the radio, you can barely see the instrument cluster which sucks.

The light on the radio goes to "night mode" when the tail lights are turned on, either manually or automatically. It's at that piont when the dash light dimmer circuit is enabled. Also the headlight on indicator in the instrument panel cluster will light up.
