How bright should gauge lights be??

So I rebuilt my dash with all new bulbs tested the circuits and all worked fine and seemed bright when it was on the bench, hooked everything back up and this is what I got. I can see the gauges ok at night with all the lights off in the garage but they seem dim to me. They weren't working before so I have nothing to go by. It seems my turn signal lights are brighter than the gauges. Yes the headlight switch Is new from advanced auto and the dimmer is all the way up. ????
