My newest old car has the same function. Dim and not as dim.  I have not seen Joe's but I bet he has softened the color of the LEDs . My aftermarket previous owner installed LEDs are actually on the verge of being annoyingly bright, " not Joe's brand." 


BTW the two position switch often has bad contacts. Some switches will benefit from a electrical contact cleaner spray.

I now have everything wired up and installed on my dashboard and I have a
couple of questions about the panel lights.

1. Why is the switch 3 position (off-on-on). The panel  lights are on in
both of the on positions.  Why isn't this switch  just an off-on switch?

2. The panel lights come on but you can barely see them. What are some
good  LED replacements?

Thanks,
Joe

Come on you guys.  The two position switch is 
designed for dim, bright and off.  Rootes did 
change this in later cars - simply on or off.

?The two position switch is designed for dim, bright and off.? 

Yes, but when the King?s English gets translated into American English it becomes, can barely see, can?t see, and the position that doesn?t drain the battery.
