Saab (don't laugh) had a function back in the late 1990s and early 2000s where the driver could push a button and all the interior lights of a vehicle would go dark except the speedometer. Of course, map lights, etc. still worked but the entire dash went dark - HVAC, radio, etc.

This was *really* helpful during long drives at night; it would have been nice to see the tach also but from a legality perspective, this was huge.

Has anyone undertaken anything similar?

In the evo, I'd be wiling to live with a switch that disabled all the interior dash lights EXCEPT for the speedo and tach.
