I'm pretty sure they're LED, at least the one I have looks like it is.
It could easily be controlled with a separate potentiometer, if you were willing to do that. Connecting it to the same pot as the dimmer in your car would be a little more difficult.
But really, how often do you use the dimmer in your car? Maybe it's just me, but I've never had to dim my dash, I guess it just might not be that bright to begin with.
I think a separate potentiometer for the MPGuino would actually be better, because finding a sweet spot for the dashboard brightness and the backlight brightness would be hard with one pot controlling both, with 2 separate ones, you could fine tune each one to its' own brightness.
