ODO bulbs

Need someone to check something for me. When you turn your headlight switch from the off position to the middle position, does your ODO get brighter/dimmer? What about from the middle position to the on position?

I remember it changing before I put in blue bulbs, but idk anymore. Someone check next time you drive please! =]

Thanks

Yea, the gauge bulbs work just fine. But my Odometer display bulbs are always on, even if the lights on the off position.

Does your odometer display (displays mileage and temp) change brightness when you turn on the lights?

Weird, mine doesn't change brightness. Oh well, it's not too much of a problem.

Perhaps is just a Change to help the Contrast since the Dash Bulbs come On there must be some kind of a Bit Dimmer in the ODO to keep the black thingy in the ODO stay Black once the Dash Bulbs kick In...
Its not too much tough.
