"Mood" lighting and instrument panel dimmer

The Mood lighting goes dimmer when you dim the instrument panel lights. Does anyone know of a mod to keep the Mood lighting bright while the panel is turned right down (ie separating the Mood lighting from the instrument panel dimmer function)?
Tx!

No it is all controlled by the computer. There is not a old fasioned dimmer control like on a 72 chevy nova.

It is so integrated into the computer that there is really no way with out programing to change this.
