Dashboard at Night?

Can someone please describe what the dashboard looks like at night? I love the look during the day, but the orange seems kind of dull, it reminds me of my 2nd gen. Is there a way to turn the lights on and keep the daytime dash look?

Just roll your dashlight brightness wheel up all the way. Then your dashlights will keep in daytime mode even when the headlights are on. I actually love the orange tint ... easy on the eye and reminds me of my 2nd gen, and that's a good thing The daytime mode blinds me at night. It's way too bright.

It is the orange display at night, but there is also a blue backlight that I think looks nice.

I had a question
in this picture, we can see there are so blue lights surrounded, but when I check mine one, there are no blue lights.
How do I get those blue lights out?

I've caught myself twice trying to drive off with the headlights off. Because the instruments illuminate all the time, I occasionally forget to actually turn on the headlights while in my driveway. Once I start backing out and realize I can't see, I remember to turn them on...Love the lights, though, AND love the digital speedo.
