    I have a 2008 Prius. When I turn on the headlights, the dashboard liights (Speedo, Odo, Fuel gauge, etc) go off. Kinda tough to watch your speed if you can't see it. Any thoughts?

    Thanks

    Check to see if your dashboard dimmer switch is all the way down. On my 05, it's on the left side of the steering wheel, near the vent.
