Due to placement, are the bottom gauges on the left normally a little dimmer? I can't tell if it's lighting the area or not..still semi light out but seems like one isn't lighting that area?

The only thing you can do is pull the black plate out to see if they're all working. Mine seems pretty evenly lit.

I'll have to try that later, good idea PrairieDrifter. There is no bulb provision behind the gas gauge so it really makes me wonder if the right side lower bulb is working or not. Different clusters, while we're at it anyone here have an early 73-75 tach cluster to confirm. Bulb placement may have changed or added on later models? See how there is only one bulb for upper and one for lower on those sections? Not shown but YES, I have it installed and have tried flipping

Not the same printed circuit/cluster, but see how some have the bulb provision in that area. Maybe because it doesn't have it, it's just significantly dimmer? I'm still going to open it and have a look later today.
