High Bean indicator... does this annoy anyone else?
 
Is it just me or is the blue high beam indicator light in the dash WAY too bright? When I am going down a dark road at night and I flip on my high beams the blue high beam indicator light is so bright its annoying. It totally makes my entire RPM gauge glow blue and I can't help but notice it glaring from the gauge cluster when looking at the road . Why the heck did Nissan make is so damn bright!?!? Makes me want to not turn my high beams on.

Does anyone else feel this way or is it just me?

I agree

I have noticed that too but it doesnt bother me as much because when I do use my high beams (which is very rare) I only use them for a max of 2 to 3 minutes, which does not bother me.

I agree it's way to bright.

I can't remember the last time I turned on my high beans. I don't remember it being annoying.

I do believe you can adjust (i.e. dim) the dashboard lighting.

VTZ,

Here's a thought!

Cut a small piece of electrical tape and place it inline on the len cover for the high beam indicator.

See if it helps with the glare, might not but it's worth a try!

Yup, it's pretty bright.

After reading this thread yesterday, I was curious about how bright mine was. Yes, it is pretty bright. Thank goodness it's only on for short times.
