Default 65 Vette - interior dash lights are too dim

All of my dash lights work but are too dim. Should the reostat on the light switch be replaced?

If so is this a simple swith change or does the dash need to be opened up?

Thanks for any assistance.

Welcome to the forum.

It's been a while since I worked on a '65 but I suspect that you need to be able to access the rear of the switch in order to release the shaft/**** and remove the switch. You could try to jumper 12 volts to the lites. It also could be that the bulbs are old unless they've already been replaced.
