I have had my '72Grabber for 15years and the dash lights have always been dim. I dont think that Ford maid dash lights bright until around 1980!! You guys are just use to looking at newer car dashes. Mavericks are old cars give them a break.
: I have the same problem on my '72! I had the instrument cluster out and completely went over it when I restored the car. All the bulbs are working, and the dimmer is also functioning properly. Could anyone shed some more light on this???
