So one step forward. Have removed the dimmer box altogether as mines never had a dimmer in it at all and I now have full and correct power to the fuel/temp dials and I have the mileometer and needles on on the dials.
You mentioned an extra earth was this one you added?

Dimmer box, is it the one behind the temp/fuel gauge?

Yes that's the one, yours might have it but mines didn't so will keep mine without as I prefer the full brightness.
