Do you have the lights turned all the way up?

Classic cars really don't have the best lighting on the gauges.

I have read of the after market gauge panels being chrome on the back, people repaint the backs white to incease the brightness. That might help a bit.

LEDs are very bright, 1 watt leds are common and you should have seen a big improcement. They do make 3 watt LEDs that are nearly blinding, not sure if you can get them for the Stang though.

As posted previously, check the dimmer first.

Definatley paint the back of the cluster white. It will help 100 percent.
