firstly,i assume your talking about the tiny bulbs which light uo the dash a/c and other bits?.these are VERY expensive little spares which must be orderd thru nissan dealers or import shops.i needed five for my a/c and they wanted about $70.00! i tried jcar but no luck.

secondly,i just removed the dimmer swith on my skyline as it was tacky and didnt let the dash light as bright as factory standard.

they are put in as an australian compliance measure and do very little for safety in night driving when u have all these xeon lights blinding u these days!

if you removed the dimmer switch, then where did you connected the wires of that switch up to? cause wouldnt the dash light need a signal/power from somewhere to light up?

you just unplug the 2 wires from the dimmer switch, and join them.
