Dim heater controls?

Any tips on how to brighten up the heat controls at night? Turn up the dash lights everything else is blinding but the heat controls are barely lit up. Is this common? Only one bulb in these? This is an 88 Camaro.

Common problem. One bulb. To brighten the controls a bit, swap in a xenon 194, which will help somewhat, but won't overcome engineering stupidity.
