Your paint job looks nice at first glance.......then as I read some of the other posts.....perhaps, the dash lighting will reflect off of the freshly painted and bright areas.....

I don't think that the dash lighting is in any way deficient.....but I live in an area with few street lights......but out here in the dark woods, the instruments look like aircraft gages at night......and can be read easily.....
