68 C-10 Instrument Panel
Seems these aren't very bright. Are they the old bulb and socket deal? Has anyone done any easy led upgrading without paying big bucks for more modern panel?

Try some #168 bulbs. They are brighter than the stock #194 bulbs. Also check the headlight switch and make sure the rheostat (knob) is turned to the brightest setting...... I would leave the #194 bulb in the bright light socket though, the #168 is pretty bright in there. LockDoc
