Dash lights, question?

I have a new 335is and the dash lights are difficult to see during the day. Does anyone know of a way to make the dash lights come on with only the running lights on and the light switch on automatic.
I would think there should be a way to rewire something to make them come on all the time.

I just gotta ask, why do you need dash lights during the day?

It's nice to be able to see the speedometer, etc, even during the day. With the white nrs and gray background it is almost impossible to see the gauges on a sunny day. The lights give a little readability to the gauges.

It doesn't really make a difference when it's on in the day unless you're in a dark/shaded area.
