    2013 DC. Are the gauges lit even when the headlights are off? I ask because I just added footwell lights and never noticed before if the instrument panel lights were on during the day.

    I am pretty sure they are on whenever the ignition is on. My '08 is that way. I believe Toyota started doing this back in '03.

    Thanks guys. I have them turned down really low at night, so I can't even see them in the daytime.:cool:

    Your instrument panel lights must be much better in the daytime than on my 2016 Tundra or the wife's 2019 RAV or you would have noticed. Pictured is an example of our instruments lights in daylight hours with the adjustments turned up all the way.
