    How dim or bright is your OBC?

    I've got the plain old 6 button obc, and can barely read it. Bulbs are brand new.
    Since this one doesnt have the light bar that I can convert to LED, I dont know what I can do about it.

    My question is, is this normal? Is everyone elses OBC as dark as fuck?

              Mine was super dim too...until I disconnected the battery, cleaned the terminals up, and hooked everything back up. Try that and see what happens? Oh yeah, use gloves! The powdery stuff is acidic!

                      The one I have is brighter than the radio and instrument cluster.
