I did at first, but have got used to it.

When I first got the car i had it on minimum - trying to save on a battery power, but minimum was too dark.

Soon stopped worrying about battery and now enjoy the lovely screen etc...

Maybe on long night journeys it is too bright, in which case a quick split second (or two) finger turn of the dial and all is good

It does more than sensing ambient light, it's also connected to the airco.
When I said I covered it I meant that I covered it by accident. My humour
