theres 2 bulbs that backlight the cluster.
maybe one is on its way out? -
The bulbs themselves are in orange sockets. Over time the can get burnt or melted or dirty. This happened on the tech side of my cluster. I replaced the bulb with an amber colored one and fixed it.sigpic"If one does not fail at times, then one has not challenged himself." -Ferdinand Porsche

Yeah, even with same wattage bulbs sometimes the bulb gets darkened over time. Pull the cluster and replace both with new and you should be good.Owner - Bavarian Restoration
