If you look at the MPH gauge at the 20mph and the 120mph you can see it's very bright (Hot Spotting)

Light and dark spots on the cluster..

basically there are area's that are brighter than others, you will have high contrast areas and low ones as well..

It's just one of them things that would drive me nuts

Mine isn't to bad and it doesn't bother me. It's just one of those things if you can handle it or not. Don't think there's really anyway around it.
