Hi, was just wondering if the centre console lights (i.e. for stereo, heaters, air con etc.) on a 220 cdi coupe can be adjusted to make them brighter. They seem very low??

My car automatically dims the dash / console lights as the ambient light falls. Yours may be the same. You can change the relative brightness with the dash control :)
