    Just purchased 2010 PRIUS lV solar roof package. There are no daytime running lights. When I put on parking or headlights the dash lights dim and unable to see screen in bright sunlight. Is this normal?

    Not sure about yours but in the Gen2 you have to roll the little wheelie diming switch past the detent (past full, it clicks) and the dash lights stay on full bright.
